| What is the Gentoo way of doing this because simply putting it in the fstab as type cifs does not work? |

For samba:
| Code: | | //machiname/sharname /mnt/point smbfs noauto,user,username=???,password=????,uid=0,fmask=777,ip=x.x.x.x 0 0 |
Of course remove the noauto flag since it seems you're trying to do the opposite.
ip= and password= are optional; use workgroup= to specify a domain

| Thank you but I already knew the proper syntax, and BTW you should consider using cifs instead of smbfs, it's a better client. |

I'm dragging up this old thread again as I have the same problem. Smbfs works fine but I want to use cifs, however I can't get it to mount at boot. It fails with
| Code: |
CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation
CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101
|
But when I have booted up, I can mount and unmount them without errormessages. If I have them mounted when I shut down, the machine hangs at "unmounting local file systems". Any idea on how to get cifs working properly?
