The files for which find failed are always different.

I am using smbmount from samba-1.9.18p4 and kernel 2.1.95. A system running
2.0.33 and the old smbfs utilities does not show this problem.

Also, it looks like mounting a Samba share (instead of a Windows 95 share)
works fine (no error messages).

Thanks,
