I have disabled the CIFS server(file-servers-custom.xml, file-servers.xml), but still i am getting the error. I searched in internet( forums and wikis), but i did not get proper solution for this.

If you have any pointers for this, Please let me know.

HI, It is a bug. I have modified the alfresco code to disable CIFS on startup.
