I found a solution! It seems to be a problem of freetype...
Just mount the cifs with the "noserverinfo" option and it will work.

Description:
------------
Trying to open a .ttf file in a CIFS mounted share (644 file permissions) causes
PHP Warning: imagefttext(): Could not read font in
/var/www/whatever/whatever/morewhatever/whatever/whatever/test.php on line 23
I tried to create the attached script (which sets GDFONTPATH to the current
dir)
to have a test. When run from /tmp with all the font files in the same
directory,
it works.
But when I moved into a CIFS mounted webroot, it stops working. It also fails
when
executing from the command line, from apache, as root, etc.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$cwd = getcwd();
putenv("GDFONTPATH=$cwd");
// Note: You can find DejaVuSans.ttf on /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/
// if you "apt-get install ttf-dejavu"
$font1 = 'DejaVuSans.ttf';
$image = imagecreate( 400, 400 );
$bgcolor = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 0, 0);
$color = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 0);
imagefttext( $image, 10, 0, 100, 100, $color, $font1, 'Test1');
header("Content-Type: image/png");
imagepng($image);
imagedestroy($image);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Both on a cifs mounted drive and a normal path you should get the PNG image
with
the "Test1" string.
Actual result:
--------------
# php test.php
PHP Warning: imagefttext(): Could not find/open font in
/var/www/phemiumconsultant/portals/consultant/runtime3g/layouts/fonts/test.php
on
line 12
