Luca,

This is a fix that has been working for many people:

Before you mount the filesystem on /mnt/samba, run the following command
as root:

$ echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnabled

then run the mount command.

Let us know how that works for you,
Andrew

PS -- The current release of rdiff-backup tends not to handle symlinks
on CIFS mounts (it depends on the particular setup). The next release,
1.1.13 should do a much better job. The fix is one-line if you need me
to send it to you.
