    Hi, Barry:
     Yes, this is off topic.
    This list is about amateur radio uses of linux.
    Not about hams that happen to use linux for
    non-amateur radio uses.

     I'd suggest "terhi.victor@logonet.com".
    Another suggestion would be to follow the suggestion
    at the bottom of every post on this list:
    "More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html"

     However, let me guess that you 'smbmount'ed a XP filesystem
    on a linux workstation. Then, when the XP filesystem 'goes down',
    you are suprised to see that the linux workstation has dropped
    the 'link' (smbmount)! :-|

     Try smb-un-mount'ing the XP-filesystem before the XP box "goes down".
    Then re-smbmount'ing when the XP box 'goes up'.
    ;-)
    See 'man smbumount'

    HTH, Chuck
