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.

SYNOPSIS

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
