Lost smbfs and cifs support

I upgraded my kernel on Suse 9.3 to 2.6.11.4-21.12-default. After the
reboot, I am no longer to mount things via mount -t smbfs or mount -t cifs.
I get a message that states that the filesystem is not supported.

A cat /proc/filesystems reveals a list that does not contain smbfs or cifs.
Did Novell drop support support for cifs and smbfs? I saw a novell press
release somewhere that gave me that impression, but I don't have the url
for it.

If support for these two method of mounting windows filesystems has been
dropped, is there a way to work around this with a new command or mount method?

Thanks,
