from personal experience I can say I had to realize that there are actually
reasons why people need to use NFS instead of cifs. The Linux cifs module gets
new features constantly, which is great and which is why the yearly statistic
about commits in cifs vs nfs kernel code look so nice for cifs.

However existing problems, which are blockers for serious/enterprise usage of
cifs on Linux clients too often don't get much attention unfortunately.
Bugzilla's search is your friend to see more specifically what I'm talking
about.
