I tried it but not very successfully. Smbmount seemed to work, I was able to
browse directories on the OS/2 machine etc. for a while. As soon as I started
a program (almost any!) the connection froze. Actually it froze my whole
network at that point. My drives are HPFS, and someone mentioned there may be
problems accessing HPFS partitions, so I gave up. :(
