I think there's an error on my part, probably.
By that config, I meant to define:

- an external filesystem, which is a (Yeah) SAN, that's mounted
   by the active node only, that contains the core applications;
- another external smb filesystem, which is accessible as
   smb://share/exportdb, with "share" being a machine name, and
   "exportdb" the share name. (What a mess, I know).
- The /etc/init.d/smb script that starts the samba server
   on the active node, for other shares that *my* server exposes.

BTW, if it's relevant to you, the redhat support request
I filed is the no. 1070734.
