Yes please.  I just started testing and haven't (yet) run into problems.

Let's see if I've got the scenario right:  a single host machine tries
to mount multiple home directories from a specific Samba server's
[homes] share.  This should be pretty easy to test... using smbmount
(smbfs), I did the following as root:

#smbmount //server/userone /mnt/sambahomes/userone -o username=userone
Password:
#ls -l /mnt/sambahomes/userone
<directory listing snipped>

Then do the same for another user:
#smbmount //server/usertwo /mnt/sambahomes/usertwo -o username=usertwo
Password:
#ls -l /mnt/sambahomes/usertwo
<directory listing snipped>


I'd be interested to see your results.  This thread has piqued (peaked,
peeked ??) my interest and I'm setting up some other tests to help
verify.
