And no one has any comments to make on this?  FWIW, I killed fam, and 
things seem to be working more or less normally here. Killing fam 
allowed me to umount those shares.  This is required because I have a 
script (cron) that remounts some shares daily else they get stale or 
something and quit working, or did back when I set that script up 5 
years ago because it would quit working at odd times.

Maybe a samba update has fixed this?  Me not know...

Cheers, Gene
People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules.  I do use spamassassin too. :-)
