| The in-kernel CIFS filesystem is generally the preferred | |
| method for mounting SMB/CIFS shares on Linux. The in-kernel | |
| CIFS filesystem relies on a set of user-space tools. That | |
| package of tools is called cifs-utils. Although not really | |
| part of Samba proper, these tools were originally part of | |
| the Samba package. For several reasons, shipping these tools | |
| as part of Samba was problematic and it was deemed better to | |
| split them off into their own package. | |
