Jonathan,
Sometime while I was installing/configure SuSE 6.4 I saw a notice about the changes in samba, but now I can't find it anywhere :-( .
I am on 6.3, which left the following message in root's mailbox at installation :
Attention: The synatax of smbmount has changed! smbmount can not be called anymore. It will be called by a shell >script /sbin/mount/smbfs, which will be called by mount. A sample call to smbfs: mount -t smbfs -o username=uname,password=passwd smbserve/share /destination
and by specifying the uid and gid you can have it not owned by root: mount -t smbfs -o username=name,password=pass,gid=#,uid=# //smbserver/share \ /dest
The above works for me.
Geoff,
