SubjectRe: smbfs bug?
Date

You're right, the first problem went away after recompiling the
newest util-linux package. Thanks !

However I am still able to perfectly reproduce the IO error when copying
larger file ~6MB between two smbfs mounts, at least on 2.2.15pre2.

I will check with pre5 tommorow.

Best,
Petr
