Guys, this can be rude, but have you read mail list today?
Boris Popov announced smbfs-1.1.2 just a few hours ago...
From README:
-----8<-------
SMB/CIFS protocol and SMB/CIFS file system implementation
for FreeBSD, version 1.1.2.
This is native SMB/CIFS filesystem (smbfs for short) for FreeBSD.
It is a complete, kernel side implementation of SMB requester and filesystem.
This release should be considered as "beta" and it doesn't contain NetBIOS
name resolver so you have to supply an IP address of SMB server by hand.
Please note, that this version of smbfs has been tested with recent
FreeBSD-current, FreeBSD 4.0 and FreeBSD 3.4.
I'm would be very grateful for any feedback, bug reports etc.
Currently smbfs has been tested with following SMB servers:
Samba, Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0 (SPs 4, 5, 6), Windows 2000.
An updated versions of this package can be retrieved from ftp server:
ftp://ftp.butya.kz/pub/smbfs/smbfs.tar.gz
