Can't mount CIFS shares under kernel version 3.0-1-generic

I have been trying to get this working for a couple of days and according to the LinuxCIFS troubleshooting page this is where I should be asking my question. I am testing Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10) and have a new D-Link DNS-320 ShareCenter that I am trying to get to mount on 3.0-1-generic. It is working fine on 2.6.39-02063901-generic so thinking there is something that changed when we moved to the 3.0 kernel. If I am in the wrong place please let me know I will find the correct place. I have included the info that was suggested from the above mentioned page.

bill@billsim-1110-64:~$ uname -r
3.0-1-generic
bill@billsim-1110-64:~$ mount.cifs -V
mount.cifs version: 4.9

When using the command
sudo mount -t cifs -o guest //192.168.0.189/Volume_1/test/ /media/bills-dns-game-1110-64test with Ubuntu 11.10 kernel 3.0-1-generic it fails to mount.

If I use the same mount command with Ubuntu 11.10 kernel 2.6.39-02063901-generic It mounts correctly.

Thanks Bill

I have found my problem with not be able to mount under kernel 3.0. I was using the guest option and that is what seems to not be working in 3.0 but did work in 2.6.39. When I use this command with kernels 3.0-0, 3.0-1 and 3.0-rc4 it works correctly. Not sure where the issue is but as a side result if you try with the guest option my system would not shutdown or reboot and had to use Alt+Sys reisub to get it to shut down. I hope I have been of some help in tracking my issue to help in resolving it.

sudo mount -t cifs -o credentials=/media/.creds //192.168.0.189/Volume_1/test/ /media/bills-dns-game-1110-64test

Thanks Bill

It looks like the same issue as we have in "[OOPS] 3.0-rc1 cifs" thread. It is going to be fixed in 3.0-rc5 with this commit:
