-----------------------------------------------------------
CIFS (aka SMB) is part of the VFS sandbox which is not distributed as part of a
VFS release. It is in the sandbox simply because it has not undergone enough
testing. It uses a fairly old version of JCIFS, which is licensed under the
LGPL. To get the SMB support included in a formal release you should check out
the source from subversion, build it and test it in your environment. Then
submit any patches required to bring it up to a more recent version of JCIFS,
and to fix any bugs you find. The sandbox also has lots of checkstyle issues so
those would want to be cleaned up. This may not take a great deal of effort but
I've never personally tested it against a real file system.
