How is the remote share accessed from the Ubuntu system? / Can it be accessed using smbclient?  --> See previous text in this bug report.

Machine details:  As mentioned above, this is a FreeNAS server -->
Name  	freenas.local
Version 	0.69.2 Muad'Dib (revision 4700)
built on Thu Jun 11 00:06:51 UTC 2009
OS Version 	FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE-p5 (revision 199506)
Platform 	i386-embedded on AMD Athlon(TM) XP 1800+ (1536MHz) 
*******
Food for thought:  My 28Dec2009 note (above) shows "Invalid packet length! (65576 bytes)".  The value of "65576" strikes me as suspiciously close to 65536 (i.e., 16-bit max).  If I had to make a guess, its not the number of files per se, but the number of files AND the length of the file names (i.e., when the directory listing is attempted).  Please let me know if any other data would be of use.
