Package: smbfs
Version: 3.0.23d-2+b1
Severity: normal

the option user conflict with the standard mount options :

man mount

user   Allow  an  ordinary user to mount the file system.  The name of the mounting user is written to mtab so that
           he can unmount the file system again.  This option implies the options noexec,  nosuid,  and  nodev  (unless
           overridden by subsequent options, as in the option line user,exec,dev,suid).

users  Allow  every user to mount and unmount the file system.  This option implies the options noexec, nosuid, and
       nodev (unless overridden by subsequent options, as in the option line users,exec,dev,suid).


besides, mounting a cifs volume from fstab as user does not work if the options guest,users, ... are set :

--> username specified with no parameter
