Yes, David,

	Now that you mention it, I have the answer! I installed:

cifs-mount-3.2.0-24.1.123
samba-winbind-32bit-3.2.0-24.1.123
samba-3.2.0-24.1.123
samba-32bit-3.2.0-24.1.123
samba-client-3.2.0-24.1.123
samba-client-32bit-3.2.0-24.1.123

and cifs is still broken. Upon install all of the Linux-to-Linux cifs mounts 
immediately fail and cannot be remounted until all samba/cifs packages are 
downgraded to the only available openSuSE alternative of 3.0.26a--bummer.

	Am I the only one affected by this??? Is there a workaround? Can I check/send 
anything else to help fix this?
