And I believe, if you check to see whats in /etc/init.d, you'll find a 
different name for the service, possibly cifs, which stands for Common 
Internet File System according to The folks in Redmond WA who dreamed up

I personally am haveing MUCH better luck using sshfs, however all 5 
machines on my local network are running linux.  I put a bounty on 
wipeing windows from anything I own in about 1997.  No regrets yet.

YMMV of course.

Take a look in /etc/init.d, reading those scripts can be very 
educational.
