I'd like to know the extent of the problem.  Specifically, does _any_
networked drive trigger this problem, or just some of them?  If the
latter, is it perhaps limited to Samba (which seems to be the type of
the mount there), or anyway to the specific kind of software that
manages the mounted volume?

TIA
