but smbfs is deprecated :-(

benden:~# apt-file search mount.cifs
samba-doc: usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/manpages/mount.cifs.8.html
samba-doc:
usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/manpages/umount.cifs.8.html smbfs:
sbin/mount.cifs smbfs: sbin/umount.cifs
smbfs: usr/share/man/man8/mount.cifs.8.gz
smbfs: usr/share/man/man8/umount.cifs.8.gz

but aptitude install mount.cifs returns
Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched
"mount.cifs"
