Correct way to mount Win2k3 shares with Samba?

What version of Samba are you running? Bugzilla is showing a heap of 
W2K3 bugs with some versions of samba.

 From just searching and reading, I'm getting the feeling you're not 
actually doing anything wrong, but that it is a Samba issue, not yours.
