If there has been a post on this before please direct me, otherwise when mounting an smb share using smbmount

smbmount //servername/share /path to mount

this causes fdc2 to lock up when listing the dir(ls).

the smbmount appears to terminate without error and the mount directory is being placed on top of a directory. I did it this way because it appears that you cannot create a directory using smbmount, the directory must already exist, such as root/shared/sharename where sharename must already exist. Is this a bug?

The syntax i am using may not be correct, I notice that when I execute mount and list all mounted shares, the smb share does not have a read/write permission set. It is listed as

//servername/share /path to directory (0)

All other shares have a permission withen the parenthesis such as (rw) or (r)

I am having almost the exact same problem. The interesting part is that ive gotten 3 servers to smbmount ok using the fstab file but I tried to do one today and its giving all the same symptoms as you describe. I don't think I did anything differently. Anybody know whats going on?
