Just cifs doesn't do what smbfs did: mounting my netdrive. It continually comes up with an error 20: not a directory. This error is totally besides the point, it just shows that cifs doesn't support all networkdevices. In 10.1 smbfs didn't have the problems cifs has.
My guess is that smbmount requires kernel support for smbfs.
The smbfs helpers got dropped recently from the Samba sources. The helpers are unmaintained and have defects on non x86 32bit systems. These are the reasons why we dropped smbfs even earlier from SUSE kernels. Please file a defect in bugzilla and add the server you're trying to access. Soon there will be a dedicated bug reporting section for cifs at http://en.openSUSE.org/Bugs/Samba Ping us in a week if there is still nothing about cifs.
