Hi, I posted this message on debian-testing and someone recommmended posting here instead. The original message follows. Since samba 2.2 went EOL lately, I upgraded Samba on the server to samba 3.0 from backports.org after writing this message, with the same results. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I don't really know if this is the right list to post this problem since
it doesn't actually concern the testing distribution. Still, my problem
came up after a sid upgrade on my setup, so I guess it involves "testing
Debian" :)
In my setup I have a home server running Woody (pastrami) and a client
(ciabatta - my desktop machine) running sid. I used to mount my WWW root
on the server as ~/www-remote on the desktop machine using "mount -t
smbfs" (via fstab), in order to allow for easy updates on the website.
Some time ago, i started getting this message when trying to mount the
SMB share on the sid machine:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mount /home/gomo/www-remote/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //pastrami/gomoxweb,
missing codepage, or too many mounted file systems
With this on dmesg:
smbfs: mount_data version 1029990773 is not supported
The entry on fstab looks like this:
//pastrami/gomoxweb /home/gomo/www-remote smbfs
defaults,uid=1000,username=gomo,password=XXXXXX
I haven't touched neither fstab on the client or smb.conf on the server,
so I guess the problem comes from some incompatibility that appeared a
bit after the samba 3.0 upload into sid (the initial upgrade to 3.0
didn't create any issues).
The installed versions are:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# dpkg -l *smb* *samba* | grep ii
ii libsmbclient 3.0.9-1
ii smbclient 3.0.8-2
ii samba 3.0.8-2
ii samba-common 3.0.8-2
pastrami:/home/gomo# dpkg -l *smb* *samba* | grep ii
ii smbclient 2.2.3a-14.1
ii samba 2.2.3a-14.1
ii samba-common 2.2.3a-14.1
The server runs custom-built vanilla Linux 2.4.27 and the client has
2.6.9.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
