To add one thing to this discussion: You can always use the smbmount utilities from 3.0, we (SerNet) will provide RPMs out of these for quite a while. The decision to pull smbmount from 3.2 was made at a time when it seemed clear that Linux will drop smbfs. And, the whole thing with OS/2 servers is really unfortunate, but I honestly do think that cifsfs needs to be fixed. It is just insane to have two versions of that file system in the kernel. If there is one man in the world who knows how to deal with OS/2 servers, it is Steve French. So bug him harder :-) Volker
