I'm running the Jaunty kde3.5 remix (Ubuntu 9.04).  I have several
related problems with automount of a cifs share, shown by the following
transcript:

p...@lepiota:~$ mount /mediavault
mount error: permission denied or not superuser and mount.cifs not installed 
SUID
p...@lepiota:~$ cat /etc/fstab | grep mediavault
//hpmediavault/FileShare /mediavault cifs 
users,auto,rw,nodev,noexec,_netdev,guest 0 0
p...@lepiota:~$ ls -l $(which mount.cifs)
-rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 30704 2009-03-27 12:20 /sbin/mount.cifs

1. The /mediavault share is not mounted on boot, even though _netdev is
supposed to solve the problem of delayed mounting not taking place.

2. Despite the presence of "users" in the /etc/fstab entry, an ordinary
user cannot mount this share.  This happens even though mount.cifs is
installed SUID.

I also note that the same /etc/fstab entry works properly in OpenSuSE
11.1.
