Since 3.0.8 I have a smbfs problem (maybe it is related). I can mount, I can see and read all the remote files. But when changing a file, input is hanging for ~30s (e.g. console or editor), coming back with 'i/o error'. Now, the remote file has 0 bytes.
This always happens. It also happens with different remote machines/samba versions. Meanwhile I switched to NFS. But it would be interesting to know what is happening. Ah, yes: got the latest SID x86, kernel 2.6.8.1 There is absolutely no entry in the logs about what happens. Neither local nor remote. There is no firewall between the machines.
