You need to pick up the latest smbfs package (2.1.0) from Volker's ftp
site -- think it's under misc/dontuse. You'll need samba 1.9.17p1, and
I had to make minor fixes to the patch contained in smbfs 2.1.0 to get
smbclient to compile.

Once you've patched smbclient, you mount a smbfs volume from the
smbclient prompt, e.g. > mount /mnt/tmp -f 755

I'll release an updated snapshot for smbfs shortly. I found the bug
that was causing the connection to die, and I can now compile linux from
a smbfs volume.

Regards,
Bill
