[KLUG Members] Issue with unmounting an smbmount.

[Dirk H Bartley]

Hello

I'm have a major issue.  I believe I have traced down what is happening to an
issue with an smb mount process.

df hangs when it gets to the smb mounted partition

[root@srvbai1 /root]# ps -aux | grep smb
root     14764  0.0  0.2  3452 1168 ?        D    09:20   0:00 /sbin/mount.smbfs
root     16774  0.0  0.2  3452 1168 ?        D    09:39   0:00 /sbin/mount.smbfs
root     16937  0.0  0.2  3452 1168 ?        D    09:40   0:00 /sbin/mount.smbfs
1064     19473  0.0  0.0  1456  476 pts/7    D<   09:55   0:00 cat /mnt/smb/bais
root     20152  0.0  0.2  3452 1168 ?        D    10:00   0:00 /sbin/mount.smbfs
root     22286  0.0  0.2  3452 1168 ?        D    10:20   0:00 /sbin/mount.smbfs

I have tried to kill and kill -9 all of these processes but no luck.  I have
tried to remove the smbfs module but no luck.  Soon I will be rebooting if I
cannot think of anything.

Any Suggestions?
