smb_dont_catch_keepalive

I have put a script in cron which every four hours smbumounts
then smbmounts all of the NT shares in which I am interested
around my network.

Most of the time I get these to my console every time it runs:

smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL
smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL
smb_dont_catch_keepalive: server->data_ready == NULL

My objective is largely met by this scheme, because at
any given time the NT shares are usually mounted, but
these messages are annoying. What do they mean?

I am running 2.0.29 and smbfs-2.0.1 although the same thing
happened when I was running 2.0.27 and smbfs-0.5. I was
hoping these messages would go away when I upgraded.

/smbfs-2.0.1/util# grep smb_dont_catch_keepalive *

Since the above command didn't show me anything I am thinking
it is not a user space thing. Am I doing something wrong?
