tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

[Paul Norton]

Hello,

I am trying to tar files from a mounted samba share.  I tell tar to
tar up contents of a samba directory and place the tar.gz on my local
drive.  I have tried this on several different samba shares with the
same issue.

For example:

mount -o password= //$computer/docs /mnt/boston/$computer/docs && tar
cvfz /mnt/usbdrive/boston_backups/$computer/docs.tar.gz
/mnt/boston/$computer/docs/ && umount //$computer/docs

Funny thing is, it produces a perfectly good tar.gz file, and it tar's
all contents.  But before it gets to '&& umount //$computer/docs' it
spits out "tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors"
