[linux-cifs-client] failed connections to 2008r2 server in high security mode

I am having a horrible time connecting to a Windows 2008r2 server that
requires signing and NTLMv2 from a RHEL 5 server.  When trying to
connect I issue the following command:

mount -t cifs //<servername>/<sharename> /mnt/cifs/ -o
user=<SERVERNAME>\\user,sec=ntlmv2i -vv

After entering my password the verbose output is:

mount.cifs kernel mount options:
unc=//<servername>\<sharename>,domain=<SERVERNAME>,ver=1,rw,user=<username>,,,,,,,,,,,,,,sec=ntlmv2i,ip=x.x.x.x,pass=********
mount error(22): Invalid argument
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

I have tried every combination I can think of, replacing sec=ntlmv2i
with ntlmv2, and specifying sign, adding the domain name, trying actual
AD users instead of a local user, but all have failed.  However I have
no problems at all connecting with smbclient.  One thing I did notice is
that with the smbclient SPNEGO must be used to make a connection, when I
set it to "no" the connection always fails.  I believe I have it
configured properly for the kernel.

I have the following 2 lines in /etc/request-key.conf

create    cifs.spnego    *    *        /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall %k
create    dns_resolver    *    *        /usr/sbin/cifs.upcall %k

and I have keyutils installed.  Can anyone tell me what I'm missing, as
I'm at a complete loss getting this connection to work. 

[root@]# yum list | grep keyutil

keyutils-libs.x86_64                 1.2-1.el5              installed 

Here is my kernel module info:
