# mount -o loop /home/smb/.image /mnt

Hi
Please CC me as I'm not on the list!
I have a share mounted to my linux box using smbmount, I can create and read files
okay. The share is exported from a Win2K server.
On the share I have a ext2 filesystem image which I am mounting with mount -o loop.
This all worked like a charm under
