      I use smbmount-2.1.x to access Windows NT file systems

      Sometimes the connection gets lost and I get the following message when
      I
      try to list those directories:
      
      bash-2.02$ ls /net/XXX
      ls: /net/XXX: Input/output error
      bash-2.02$
      
      If I try to mount again the net directories, smbmount-2.1.x says:
      
      Could not resolve mount point
      
      and the only solution I know is to restart my potato. After restart
      the connections are available again.
      
      How can I restore connections without restarting?

I can only suggest you that upgrades your kernel to 2.2.x and install,
after do it, the last smbfs package that replace the smbfsx for 2.1.x
kernels.

After the two updates (kernel and package) all runs ok now. Try it and
good luck!
