cvs commit: lock failed

[Wayne Call <wcall edoceramic com>]

When attempting to execute a cvs commit command, I receive the following
error:

cvs commit: failed to create lock directory for '\mnt\ .....'

I have created a mount using the smbmount command as follows:

smbmount //WORKGROUP//VOL1 /mnt/file1 -o username=wcall

The mount is for a network drive on a Windows NT Server.  The "cvs commit"
command attempts to check in files from a Linux Machine directory to the
network drive.  It failes because it cannot create a lock.  I believe the
lock cannot be created because a guest user cannot create locks on the
mounted network drive.

Any suggestions?
