[Samba] smbmount not exiting in script

[Bert Buckley]

I run a script to mount several file shares from machines running W98 
and W2000 so that I can do incremental dumps every night of these file 
shares.

smbmount almost always fails to exit.  This causes the script to stall
and so the dumps are not done.  In the am, if I kill the smbmount 
processes, the dumps complete successfully, since the mounts were in 
fact correctly completed. (I know that smbmount leaves a child running 
to monitor the mount, but neither the parent nor child smbmount exits.)

I am running RH 9, kernel 2.4.20-8, samba-2.2.7a-7.9.0.

Note that logwatch also reports the following every morning:

   WARNING:  Kernel Errors Present
  smb_get_length: recv error = 5...:  32Time(s)
Related?

Thanks for any help.

Bert
