Well, smbmount is a process that runs until you umount the share.
This seems like normal behavior.

It's a daemon. When you start a daemon you're supposed to get your prompt back, along with an exit code indicating whether the daemon started well or not. Getting your prompt hijacked by a daemon is not normal behaviour.

In the meanwhile I found other similar reports:

All of them are on Redhat 9, all of them are recent, from the past
two-three months. I'll try installing a samba.org RPM and see if
I still have the same problem.
