I see this error even with long filenames configured in but if I persist
(keep trying the same command over and over) the smbmount call eventually
works.

I am running 2.0.0 with smbfs as a module and just built smbmount today.
My target server is running WfW 3.11.

I am seeing very similar symptoms when I try to access this server using
Andrew's smbclient with the -L option.

Both smbclient and smbmount seem to work about one time in three or four.

Have you found a solution yet?

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen.
