+ help
+ 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.
