I've looked at the manpage, which lead me to listen(8), saying that it's supposed to be ran by tcp445 - which does contain a call to cifsd. I'm scratching my head on how I'm supposed to correctly configure and use that service.

Not saying that you couldn't get this to work, I am just not aware of anyone who has. If you > do I'd be curious to see what kind of arm wrestling you have to do on the windows side. I don't think neither my Plan 9 nor my Windows skills are there (yet) :)
