Re: smbmount hangs

I used smbmount on my work daily, and still remembering that unpleasant
hang.

What I did was to mount shared Windows drives in rc.local, and, what was
most important, end each smbmount command with "&". This would free your
terminal and bring prompt back again.

As I remember the glitch was that smbmount rare gave prompt back, thus
appearing it hanged, but not so.

There was once a programmer who worked upon microprocessors. "Look at
how well off I am here," he said to a mainframe programmer who came to
visit, "I have my own operating system and file storage device. I do not
have to share my resources with anyone. The software is self-consistent
and easy-to-use. Why do you not quit your present job and join me here?"
The mainframe programmer then began to describe his system to his
friend, saying: "The mainframe sits like an ancient sage meditating in
the midst of the data center. Its disk drives lie end-to-end like a
great ocean of machinery. The software is a multi-faceted as a diamond
and as convoluted as a primeval jungle. The programs, each unique, move
through the system like a swift-flowing river. That is why I am happy
where I am." The microcomputer programmer, upon hearing this, fell
silent. But the two programmers remained friends until the end of their
days. -- Geoffrey James, "The Tao of Programming"
