Comment:
After a little research, most distros are symlinking mount.cifs in /sbin.
I don't see any reason to symlink. Installing the mount.cifs and
umount.cifs in /sbin seems the most logical solution. Though I consider it
a bug in the mount program (no program should hard-code a path), why fight
it?
I'll make a change to the Samba instructions to move the two files into
/sbin. Thanks for the report and the very nice explanation.
