rawhide - 2.6 & cifs

[Satish Balay]

Looks like cifs is to be used with 2.6kernel instead of smbfs. Which
package contains mount.cifs - which is required for using cifs?

Thanks,
Satish

AFAIK, latest Samba RPM from development still does not provide
mount.cifs. However, you can download a binary/source from
http://www.samba.org.

Just as I thought. Perhaps it could be added in before test1. I had
earlier tried using it by compiling source - but it crashed my machine
- so I figured - I should try whatever gets packaged into rawhide.
