There is no > error with the module loading. The smbfs kernel module was modified in the 4.5-PRERELEASE track so to depend on the libiconv and libmchain modules. Before that, doing a mount_smbfs resulted in an "exec format error" with a message in /var/log/messages indicated a symbol in smbfs.ko was undefined. You might want to verify that all of those modules are up-to-date. I just tried this on a recent 4.5-RC machine with no smbfs-related options in the kernel, and it worked like a champ. > > After perusing the mailing lists, I realized the problem could be caused by > the smbfs port which i didn't remove prior to make and install world. > I pkg_delete'd it, during which it noted that /sbin/mount_smbfs and > /modules/smbfs.ko had been modified.

When you mount a smb share, you should have the following modules loaded: 5 1 0xc3417000 1a000 smbfs.ko 6 1 0xc3432000 3000 libiconv.ko 7 1 0xc3436000 3000 libmchain.ko Joe > > on bootup, netsmb_dev loads fine.
