Problems seeing samba shares from chroot

[Clive Menzies <clive@clivemenzies.co.uk>]

Hi

I have two sid amd64 systems on this box (main and reserve); the
principle difference between the two is the main system is on LVM.
Firefox/Iceweasel is run in the 32bit chroot and works fine on both.
However, following a recent upgrade of the main system, I could no
longer access samba shares from firefox even after remounting the shares
manually (using mount -a).

Initially, I suspected udev which was upgraded from 103-1 to 103-2 but
testing this theory on the reserve system proved otherwise.  Both with
103-1 and 103-2 I can access the shares from firefox in the chroot.

Anyone got an idea how to troubleshoot this?

from /etc/fstab:

//zeus/cma /smb/cma cifs credentials=/home/clive/.smb_pass,uid=clive,gid=staff,file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770 0       0

/smb/cma  /var/chroot/sid-ia32/smb/cma   none   bind   0 0
