Product     : Fedora 14

Summary     : Utilities for mounting and managing CIFS mounts
Description :
The SMB/CIFS protocol is a standard file sharing protocol widely deployed
on Microsoft Windows machines. This package contains tools for mounting
shares on Linux using the SMB/CIFS protocol. The tools in this package
work in conjunction with support in the kernel to allow one to mount a
SMB/CIFS share onto a client and use it as if it were a standard Linux
file system.

Update Information:

This is an update that fixes problems mounting on a directory to which root doesn't have explicit execute permissions. It also fixes problems mounting on systems that have replaced /etc/mtab with a symlink to /proc/mounts.
