Bug Description
This mount command works:
[CODE]sudo mount -t smbfs -o credentials=
[/CODE]
Simply changing to cifs makes it not work:
[CODE]sudo mount -t cifs -o credentials=
[/CODE]
The cifs version fails under this scenario:
Open Nautilus
open test folder (share)
File > Create Document > Empty File "deleteme3.txt"
double click "deleteme3.txt" to open in gedit
enter some text and click save:
Error: Could not save the file /media/
I have been able to repeat this failure for the last 2 days under various mounting options.
I described it here:

I'm using Gutsy i386
The problem not only exists in Hardy beta, but the work-around that worked under Gutsy does not work under Hardy at this time.
