Mounting NT shares under Linux works almost perfectly for me:
mount -t smbfs -o username=myname,password='mypassword'\
,gid=201,fmask=775,workgroup=WORKGROUP,rw //SERVER/SHARE /MOUNTPOINT
(of course I stripped private stuff here). In this case share will be
available R/W for members of group 201. I only remeber problems
if NT server goes down from some short time. If You're getting
trouble after some inactivity time run 'df -t smbfs >/dev/null 2>&1'
once per some minutes from crontab
After that I don't see any problems to access mounted share from DOSEMU
using LREDIR
