[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#400734: smbfs: please fix mount.cifs man page

Package: smbfs
Version: 3.0.23d-1
Severity: minor

Hi,

man 8 mount.cifs suggests that a credentials file can only contain
username and password fields.

It can, however, actually also include a workgroup field.

Which is important if a Windows file server suddenly stops accepting
user at domain as username but insists on username user and workgroup
domain.

Greetings
Marc
