In /etc/fstab in part:

//z1590/E /mnt/z1590/E smbfs ro,credentials=filename,user 0 0
//z1590/G /mnt/z1590/G smbfs ro,credentials=filename,user 0 0
//z1590/I /mnt/z1590/I smbfs ro,credentials=filename,user 0 0

Result is the same if I change the last line to include 'noauto' and
mount the share manually. I have no trouble in accessing .../G & .../E,
but .../I is nothing but trouble. Trying to access it I get:

        File 'I' exists but can not be stat-ed: Permission denied

Can't unmount either:
        # umount //z1590/I
        umount: /mnt/z1590/I: device is busy

Somewhat different result using -f umount option.
        # umount -f //z1590/I
        umount2: Device or resource is busy
        umount: /z1590/I: not found
        umount: /mnt/z1590/I: Illegal seek

Same message as without -f occurs during shutdown:
        umount: /mnt/z1590/I: device is busy
        netfs: Unmounting SMB filesystems: failed
        umount: /mnt/z1590/I: not mounted

Shutdown via 'telinit 6' or 'reboot' or the KDE login manager never
completes. Last line on display is:

        Sending all processes the KILL signal . . .

CAD rattles the HD, but produces no visible result. I have to use the
reset button or power switch to finish the shutdown, and that always
forces fsck on next boot.

If I do 'telinit 1' and 'umount -a -f' before 'reboot', the shutdown
messages differ slightly, but fsck is still forced on reboot.

If I never try to access share .../I, the system will shut down and
reboot properly.

I also have a box with Mandrake 8.2, and it has no problem accessing any
z1590 shares. Same two boxes booted to windoze or OS/2 also have no
problem.

Any ideas on what the problem is and how to solve it are most welcome.

Felix,

Is this a Linux to Linux connection that you're attempting to make with Samba for the purpose of sharing these files?
