OS X - cifs - What's Up?

Can all you OS X xperts help me?

OS X Leopard 10.5.6:

mount -t cifs -o username=name,password=secret //server/share /mnt/dir

Works from every linux box I have ever used. This does not work from the OS X terminal. Why?

The gui/finder/go: cifs://server/share just works... command line no?

Ubuntoo, Gentoo, SuSe all work what's up with OS X.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

NAME
fusedav - mount WebDAV shares SYNOPSIS
fusedav [-hDL] [-t secs] [-u username] [-p password] [-o options] URL mountpoint DESCRIPTION
fusedav is a userspace filesystem driver that allows you to mount WebDAV shares. This way you can transparently edit and manage files on a remote server. As long as the fusedav process is running, the WebDAV share located at URL is accessible under mountpoint. If username and password are required and you did not specify them on the command line you will be prompted as soon as you are trying to access the mounted share. OPTIONS
-h Show summary of options. -D Enable debug mode. -L Lock the repository during mount. (Not properly supported on all servers, hence not enabled by default.) -t secs Set lock timeout to secs seconds. -u username Use username for authentication if required. -p password Use password for authentication if required. -o options Pass options as additional mount options to FUSE. URL Location of the WebDAV share. mountpoint Local mountpoint of the WebDAV share. AUTHOR
fusedav was written by Lennart Poettering <mzshfrqni (at) 0pointer (dot) de>. This manual page was written by Sebastian Harl <tokkee@debian.org>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others). August 24, 2006 FUSEDAV(1)
