Not sure why cifs should not work though.

If I try to set /sbin/mount.cifs setuid root, then I get: % mount /mnt/win mount error: permission denied or not superuser and mount.cifs not installed SUID Which is rather strange as mount.cifs _is_ SUID Does this mean that the wiki examples don't work for CentOS 4?
