Let's see, you first do this on server2

1. mkdir /Shared
2. mount_smbfs //server1/Shared /Shared
3. On server2 you rm -R /Shared.

If so this is a bad thing. You have two choices here. ssh to server 1 and do that function on server1. Or cd /Shared and rm the stuff in there. You can't delete the mount point and then recreate the mount point, then remount the shared drive.

/shared is actually the copy of one of mine folder which is updated everyday. That's why I need to remove /Shared and recreate it.

rm -Rf  /Shared
cp -R /myDir /Shared

Hi I have 2 servers. server 1(Fedora Core 2) shares /Shared with rwxrwx, server2(Redhat linux 9) mount to /Shared from server 1. When I did smbmount from server2, Shared is successfully mounted. I then remove /Shared



Huh? What do you mean remove /Shared?

and recreate /Shared from server 1,



Again sorry, Huh? Please explain precisely.

I started having problem from server 2. when I do mount, it still show Shared is mounted, but when I do ls -l / , it displays /Shared Input/Output error.
I can't unmount /Shared after that. When I try to umount, it dislays can't write superblock. Can anybody tell me what's happening here? How can I fix it? If nothing I can do, reboot the system will umount /Shared?
