Hello,

  I need to ship a patch by week's end that provides the functionality to perform 'mount -t cifs' and mount subdirectories //192.168.1.11/Users/jon/shared /mnt.

  My kernel , mount , samba version combinations do not allow this: ie "not a block device" .

  Can I install something, say cifs-utils, that I can ship in a patch without shipping another kernel?

version:
mount from util-linux-ng 2.18
kernel 2.6
smbclient Version 3.0.22

Thanks
c
