You can rebuild the samba sources from upstream to use the smbfs driver. I don't know how much longer smbfs userspace will be available in samba upstream either, though; Debian is not the first vendor to disable it, and there are active discussions of deprecating it in the upstream kernel. The smbfs driver is definitely a dead end. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
