http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=smbfs.o&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=stable&arch=i386
that shows all the packages in woody which have the smbfs.o file(kernel
module). the default 2.2.20 kernel appears to have it, is there not
a /lib/modules/2.2.20/fs/smbfs.o on your system?
if so, try insmod /lib/modules/2.2.20/fs/smbfs.o , perhaps for some
reason the system does not 'detect' the module so modprobe doesn't see it.
