Mounting external network attached storage

[Christopher Beynon]

You have to disable linux extensions. You can't do that on the server side
(maxtor NAS), so have to do it on the client side.

You should use these commands, before you mounted the samba shares. You
could try the following:
1. Delete or uncomment the line which mounts the samba share in fstab
2. Reboot
3. /sbin/modprobe cifs
echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled
mount samba share
