If you're typing the command into a Linux system, then the message is obviously coming from the Linux system. You don't have CIFS support loaded, so load it. You don't say what version of Red Hat you're using, but if it's Red Hat enterprise, you can call Red Hat support, since you're paying for it, right? And you've got access to the Red Hat network so you'll easily be able to load CIFS support.

thx reply ,
why I do not follow the thread is because two questions is not related , I don't want to mix it up.
I do not pay for redhat support ,
except download from redhat network , can I install any package to make the system CIFS support ?
If you can download from RH, then you are paying for it, inc support; its an all-in deal.
I suppose if you've got the 30-day free trial that would be different, but that would expire anyway..

Spell out your words. And the question was, why don't you ever follow up in your threads, or say what you've tried, what the results were, or even say "thanks"??

No, which is why you should either PAY for Red Hat support, or use CentOS or Scientific Linux instead. Have you looked on your installation DVD for any CIFS packages?

Code:
yum install cifs-utils
when I install the cifs-utils , it pops the error below , I tried install keyutils package , it asks other pre-installed package ....
rpm -Uvh cifs-utils-5.6-2.fc19.i686.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:

Therefore , I would like to ask if I want to setup samba server , should I download the source file of cifs , then no need to install the pre-install package ? or except mount -t cifs , is there other way I can mount remote serve ?

Thanks.
You won't be able to compile it without the source packages/files for ALL the dependencies listed. Again, if you read the replies you've been given, if you're not PAYING for Red Hat then DON'T USE IT. If you had followed this advice some time ago, you could just type in "yum install cifs-utils", press ENTER, and you'd be done.
You have two choices: Pay for Red hat support and use yum (as was told to you), or load each package manually from whatever source you can find them, and hope for the best.
thx replies,
I think I can not install cifs to the server , as it needs many pre-installed packages .
I would like to ask is there any way around that I can mount the remote server , except use cifs or nfs , how can I mount remote server ?
thx
Again, since you've missed it several times: SPELL OUT YOUR WORDS. It's "thanks", not "thx", "please", not "pls"....
And again, you can install the packages (probably) from your DVD, using yum. But AGAIN, if you're not going to PAY for Red Hat enterprise, you SHOULD NOT BE USING IT. All you'll succeed in doing is creating an unstable server, since you WILL NOT get patches/upgrades/bugfixes/security updates, and will NOT get access to online packages. Which is why CentOS and Scientific have been suggested to you, but you don't seem to take this advice.
Unless you use a network file system (cifs, nfs, etc.), you're left with sshfs, which MAY (or may NOT), work for what you want. It's not a good substitute, and you probably will have to install packages for it as well.
My current problem is can not install cifs via rpm or yum .
sorry to repeat my question , I know that except use rpm to install package , some package have source code version to download , we can compile the source code rather than use rpm to install , so I just would like to ask is there such source code to download ? or may be I am wrong ?

Yes, but again, you seem to be ignoring/not understand the replies. Yes, you CAN install all that from source, but AGAIN, you will have to install all the DEPENDENCIES from source too. Go right ahead and do so if you want...doesn't get much more clear than that.
And AGAIN, if you're not going to PAY for Red Hat enterprise, then DON'T USE IT. If you took this advice (which you were given quite some time ago), you wouldn't be having these problems now. And again, even if you manage to get things going, you'll be unpatched, have no updates, and have security/bug issues to deal with.
