I am mounting as the root user because I have not given my user permission

Following is the results of the troubleshooting steps that you gave me.
I did not understand what would be wrong from looking at the strace.

Please run "locate mount.cifs" or, if you dont have it installed,
"find / -name mount.cifs 2>/dev/null"

It seems that you do not have mount.cifs installed or it is out of your search
PATH. "mount" is looking for it at /sbin. Provide a link, please.

locate and find both turned up nothing.

Apparently I do not have mount.cifs on my filesystem. That does not make sense to me. CIFS works when I specify a username and password directly but not when I use the credentials option. It would seem that CIFS is installed.
