Unfortunately it seems cifs isn't quite ready for primetime yet and is lacking some functionality that's in smbfs.
The only thing it lacks IIRC is the ability to mount a windows 9X share on the Linux machine.
Not so. There are some problems with host name resolution in cifs that don't occur with smbfs. I experienced them. Several people posted painful workarounds for those problems, but just sticking with smbfs is a far better solution. Avoid the cifs bleeding-edge solution for now. Some day it may be the way to go.
