When configuring the kernel, choose the option that allows you to use
experimental drivers. Then you will see the samba long filenames driver,
I haven't tried it yet, my new compiled gernel gives me a gpf :) Also of
note, this is in the 2.0.6 source which can be gotten as a debian
package, there more recent kernels probably have better versions of the
long file names driver if this one doesn't work...

Until now I didn't even know about smbmount though I looked at
NET-2-HOWTO and such... can anyone tell me how do I get a list of
services or whatever that I could mount with it?

Also, anyone get Appletalk working?

Thanks,

Raf
