I'm trying to do the mount on the 2.6 system, sorry if my description was confusing.  The 2.4 kernal is the server.
 
mount.cifs --version is 1.5

That's fine.  I'm just wondering what version of CIFS VFS you have installed into your 2.4 kernel.

I do have /sbin/mount.cifs  I just used the mount -t option since i'm more familiar with it.

I'm assuming you mean you get the "mount error 5' when you use

 

mount -t cifs //server/share/ path/to/local/ -o user=u,pass=p,lfs

Do you have an executable named mount.cifs in /sbin or /usr/sbin on the client?

If not, you'll need to install CIFS VFS on the client.  You may need to install kernel patches to make this happen.
