Kristof,

You can lookup these bugs in bugs.opensolaris.org for more
details on these symptoms:

6749515 Unable to grant domain users/groups access to files
6765156 Active Directory setup has problems if the NETBIOS domain name 
does not match AD FQDN
6735548 Domain users cannot connect to CIFS shares from MacOS 10.5

To answer your questions, yes in normal condition you shouldn't need
to do anything for CIFS server to show up in My Network Places.
