Comment 2 for bug 268536

I guess the thing is that smbfs is no longer used cifs is used transparently
instead.
exept it's not transparent at all so all of my old scripts broke disabling
my server.
the original post has all the information I think you might need, but if you
need any specific answers please ask.
I did find 1/2 of a work around but the behaviour is still different.

to reproduce:
1)install ubuntu 6.x
2)have a NAS or some separate SBM share
3)set up a a bash script to mount the share

 -o username=user,password=long-password,fmask=0555,dmask=0555,gid=1000
//ip/share /media/folder

4) upgrade to 8.x
5) it won't work anymore
6) the best fix I can find dose not preserve the original behaviour

please email me any help you can offer
