Package: smbfs
Version: 2.0.6-1
Severity: normal
If I mount a share that is located on the far end of a ppp link, then
the ppp link goes down, accessing the mount point causes the process
to hang. It can't be killed even by a kill -9. Bringing the ppp
link back up does not cause the hung process to resume either.

(at least!)
I tried reproducing this bug by mounting with smbfs a remote
directory, then cut the network link with the server:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> mount.smbfs //kheops/famille /mnt -o username=bubulle
Password:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ls -l /mnt
total 0
.../...
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>
Then I cut the link:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> ls -l /mnt
<30s timeout>
ls: /mnt: I/O error
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>
So, there doesn't seem to be any bug around and as suggested in the
bug log this was probably a bug in the smbfs driver in the
kernel. Anyway, even if, these days, smbfs is considered deprecated,
this bug is no longer here.
