-Up until recently smbfs has not been maintained as nobody in the Samba

-over maintainence. <p>

-A new release of smbmount will be in the 2.0.6 release of Samba. <p>

-If you install a binary RPM of Samba then you should find that
-smbmount is already built for you. Otherwise you will need to build it
-from the Samba sources.<p>
-
-<ol>
-<li>Grab the latest Samba sources and unpack them
-<li>Configure with "./configure --with-smbmount"
-<li>Compile using "make"
-<li>Run "make install"
-</ol>

-After that you should read the smbmount man page for info on using smbmount

+<p>smbfs has not been maintained in the last few years. Instead, development 
+has been focused on another implementation of the CIFS protocol in the 
+kernel. See the <a href="http://linux-cifs.samba.org/">CIFS VFS</a> for 
+more information. </p>
