If it makes you feel any better, I have experienced the same problem. It
will also trip you up if you have a large number of files to transfer
between machines. Basically, you will lose files randomly, which can be
pretty tough to track down. I didn't have time to check it out, so we
installed Hummingbird NFS (yuk) on the NT box and used good old nfs mount
as a work around.
This is a pretty serious problem, as you say, and I found it hard to
believe that no one has fixed it. Part of the issue might be the official
Samba team refuses to support smbmount. This is a real shame, as it could
be a big advantage for Samba if it worked reliably.
