Details

After an upgrade of cifs-utils to version 5.9-1, I can't anymore mount my remote samba filesystem.
Calling
# mount.cifs --verbose '//DEVICE' /mnt/home -o user=WATASHI
yields the uninformational message

Password for WATASHI@//DEVICE:
mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=...,unc=\\DEVICE,user=WATASHI,pass=********
mount error(38): Function not implemented
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)

On an other machine, running Gentoo Linux with net-fs/cifs-utils-5.6-r1 and USE flags "caps creds -upcall -ads -caps-ng",
there's no problem with mounting the device.

More bizarrely, Arch's mount.cifs can mount another remote filesystem I'm administrating myself (Running Debian Lenny 5.0 with samba version 2:3.2.5-4lenny13)
This task depends upon

The authentification mode has changed there was something on the arch-general list.

Thanks.
Adding -o sec=ntlm solves the problem.
