Recently I've had more and more users require individual mounts to 
various NT / win2k servers from our Linux app servers.  I've written 
several shell scripts that mount to the users home directory a windoze 
share (different scripts for different servers/shares) and it's been 
working fine since October 2000.

Lately my users would notice the mount point directory would simply 
"disappear" when they performed an ls on their home directory.  We could 
cd into it and pwd shows that it exists and we are inside the mount 
point however we cannot dismount the server nor delete the mount point 
(says it's busy).  Of course we're trying this above the mount point (in 
case anyone was wondering).  Rebooting the server restores it to normal 
operations (not desirable though).  I've gone through the services and 
killed that user's processes yet we still cannot see that mount point 
nor dismount the NT server (still says it's busy).

I'm wondering if anyone has seen this problem before.  We are running 
RedHat 6.2 kernel SMP 2.2.14.  I'm thinking since smbfs is a kernel 
module I should upgrade perhaps to 2.2.18/2.2.19.  Holding off on 2.4.x 
(for now).

Thx

Frank
