Is the following line for mounting samba shares a good one?
smbmount //server/share /tmp/mountpoing -o lfs,codepage=cp437,iocharset=utf8,username=xx,password=xx
Or has someone a better mount line? Like something with CIFS?

I’m mostly using:
mount -t cifs -o username=xxx,password=xxx,umask=0000 //server/share /mnt/mountpoint
why CIFS ?
Had some problems connecting to a W2003 server once, which where solved by using CIFS
smbmount uses smbfs, which is deprecated and misses features present in more recent versions of Samba (look at the ). Newer versions of Samba do not carry smbmount/smbumount anymore. CIFS is being developed further, and is the choice for new projects.
and what about the statement that kernel 2.4 does not support CIFS the fullest?
Hi Dennis! I don’t know exactly to what statement you are pointing. I do know that the OpenWRT guys had a kmod-cifs for 2.4.30 that worked great for me on my WRT54G like a year and a half ago.
I don’t exactly what’s running of the CFULLHDMA, but there should be a way to get it going. Disclaimer: not an expert, just trying to help.
