    Thanks for the replies.

    When I do rpm -qf /usr/bin/smbmount it replies file not found.

    The problem is this, that I used to be able to mount my windows shares
    through the fstab and a type of smbfs but now it doesn't work I get the
    error

    Smbfs: mount_data version 1029990773 is not supported
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on \\FHServer1\backup,
           or too many mounted file systems
    Smbfs: mount_data version 1029990773 is not supported
    mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on \\FHServer1\domains,
           or too many mounted file systems

    Here is my original fstab as you can see the two sets of error messages
    are generated from the lines with type smbfs now these did work under
    redhat 9.

    LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults
    1 1
    none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620
    0 0
    none /proc proc defaults
    0 0
    none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults
    0 0
    LABEL=/userdata /userdata ext3 defaults
    1 2
    /dev/hda3 swap swap defaults
    0 0
    \\FHServer1\backup /windowsshare/backup smbfs
    auto,uid=webalizer,gid=webalizer,fmask=0750,dmask=0750,iocharset=iso8859
    -15,credentials=/etc/winpasswd 0 0
    \\FHServer1\domains /windowsshare/domains smbfs
    auto,uid=webalizer,gid=webalizer,fmask=0750,dmask=0750,iocharset=iso8859
    -15,credentials=/etc/winpasswd 0 0
    /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660
    noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

    And the rpm -qa |grep samba produced this...

    samba-3.0.3-5
    system-config-samba-1.2.9-2
    samba-common-3.0.3-5
    samba-debuginfo-3.0.4-2

    The debuginfo came from me messing about trying to get the 3.0.4
    working.

    I am missing something here and I think its quite suttle

    Cheers for your help. I am off to bed here now as I have a 5am start
    which is in 4.5 hours time.

    Just a warning.

    A real error, forget the samba-3.0.4-1 package as it is not for Fedora.

    You didn't really explain what you tried to use samba and what failed
    with which error messages or which behaviour.
