 I posted basically this problem yesterday with no response, but I have some
 new information so here's a rego.
  
 I mount a solaris box which is sharing files with pc-netlink
 
 I use the following line in my fstab
  
 //machinename/Share /mnt/machinename/share smbfs
 credentials=/etc/fstabpwds/username,ro,user 0 0
  
 And it mounts fine, I can access all the directories, and most of the files.
  
 Some of the files however are problematic. Namely, I can't copy them or open
 them or use them in anyway. If I try to cp them, the process never ends and
 the resulting file grows until it takes up all the space on the destination
 drive.

This is a known issue. You can workaround it by using with the
(undocumented) oldattr option. Please give use feedback if it that helps
for you.

(Sorry Guenther, I accidentally replied to you personally early, my mistake)

Adding the oldattr option did not work, adding the oldattr option and
removing user from my fstab did do the trick.

Thank you so much!
