I have a CentOS server at home in the same condition as the one at work and "cifs" mount does work there. I think I am a little thrown by the idea that I can ftp and ssh to the box by IP and by hostname, and therefore routing is good, but I get a "no route to host" when I try to "cifs" mount that same CentOS box at work.

It is possible that a router or firewall is denying those ports on the
effected systems explictly. You may need to talk with the network guys.

So I guess I would be asking for a rule that would allow anyone to reach that server here:
cifs            3020/tcp                        # CIFS
cifs            3020/udp                        # CIFS

In the alternative, if I get no cooperation, I could I think, slap a router between the network and the switch and create a subnet with the proper routing and stick the server inside that subnet... It would be nice if they opened up access to the server though...
