problem with smbumount and cron

Hi,
I've got the following simple script which copies a file thru samba between
two linux machines. The script is executed within cron:

#!/bin/bash
FILE_NAME=/vol1/sys/tmp/fatturato.html
SHARE=web_privato
IP=192.168.1.7
MOUNT_POINT=/mnt/firewall

/usr/bin/smbmount //${IP}/${SHARE} ${MOUNT_POINT} -o ip=${IP},guest
if test $? -eq 0
then
cp ${FILE_NAME} ${MOUNT_POINT}
/usr/bin/smbumount ${MOUNT_POINT}
fi

Nevertheless, the mount point is never unmounted if the script runs thru cron,
while it is rightly unmounted if launched by an interactive user. I'm running
it on a redhat 6.2 and a suse 9.0 with the same problem. Any thoughts?

Luca
