There are no modules listed.
I guess that would be expected if you compiled a non-modular smbfs. Did you? I am using the Linux 2.4.21 kernel on a Sun Blade 100 with Debian unstable. Mounting a Samba share works as expected. i.e. with # mount -t smbfs -o username=user,uid=user //samba/share /mnt I am prompted for a password, the mount works and the share is mounted under /mnt. -- Roy Bixler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The University of Chicago Press
