I tried installing the latest util-linux-ng and cifs-utils,
but still no luck:

[root@ct503-10G-09 mount]# mount -v -t smb2 -o user=lf,pass=lf //192.168.100.125/pub /mnt/lf/smb2
mount.smb2 kernel mount options: ip=192.168.100.125,unc=\\192.168.100.125\pub,,ver=1,user=lf,pass=********
mount error: smb2 filesystem not supported by the system
mount error(19): No such device
Refer to the mount.smb2(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.smb2)

I'm out of ideas on this.

Thanks,
Ben
