I am using Linux CentOS 5 there are no smbmount and smbumount.
The solution is to create a symbolic link for smbmount and smbumount , such as the following:

# ln -s /sbin/mount.cifs /usr/bin/smbmount
# ln -s /sbin/mount.cifs /usr/bin/smbmnt
# ln -s /sbin/umount.cifs /usr/bin/smbumount

I am using Debian and I don’t see problem with samba client packages. Have you searched net for samba client package?

Another option is you can download and compile the samba-client software itself (it also known to work on Suse Linux)

Appreciate your post.

SSLBridge would be a great thing but is not working on modern systems (such as Fedora Core 6) as support for SMBFS has been stripped of the kernel and only standard CIFS is supported.

So the commands “smbmnt” and “smbumount” are not installed on systems such as Fedora Core 5/6.

The package “samba-client” which should contain these binaries don’t have them.

Sorry but I think this product needs a major rewrite as most people wont have the binaries in their distros anymore.

It works great, but it doesn’t seem to run natively over SSL. I had to add a line to my Apache config to get it to redirect over SSL. Other than that, it looks great.
