What do you mean about recompile mount.cifs.c? Do you mean rename mount.cifs to mount.smb2? Or do I need to hack on mount.cifs.c code? If I need to do any re-compiling at all, please point me to the proper upstream repository for these changes. It doesn't seem to be working on Fedora 13. I checked that smb2 module is loaded.
