Bye bye smbfs

From Fedora Core 5, ( I dont know about others as of now), they have stopped supporting "smbfs" and expects the users to replace it with "cifs". Hence, if you need to mount a network driver,

mount -t cifs //server_name/to_be_mounted /mapping/directory 
-o username=myname,workgroup=mydomain

Also, it (mount) doesn't like SMB names. You have to give it IP address or DNS hostname. Happy linking !!!
