Hi all
I am trying to use the cifs module to mount a share from a win2k3 server but I am getting the following error in /var/log/messages - the filesystem does mount but i'm having other issues accessing the data from our web based app. Can anyone explain why I get this error please? Indeed the file mount_cifs.so does not exist on the machine.
automount[31080]: open_mount: (mount):cannot open mount module cifs (/usr/lib/autofs/mount_cifs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) -- Mark Farmer RHCT
I filed a bug report on this issue. Apparently, this is harmless.

However, you might want to pay attention to the more serious bug in cifs which causes kernel oops. The note for CentOS 5 users appears in:
