[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#457942: smbfs: mount.cifs reports error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) when mounting multiple Windows shares

[Tobias Nissen]

Hi Steve!

I can reproduce the bug on Etch, not on Lenny.

Me, I'm limited to one mount at a time. But I connect to a normal
Windows 2000 or XP machine (can't say for sure), instead of a 2003
server.

I can not reproduce the problem when connecting to a Windows 2000
machine on Lenny, with a 2.6.22-3-486 kernel. Unfortunately I don't
have other machines available to run more tests.

Regards,
Tobias
