Thanks, I seem to have been able to get cifs to connect and am copying the files. However the performance of the CIF share is pretty poor compared to samba cifs.

The data is going to be split onto 5 sites, but one of them is pretty much 15GB on its own, the other ones are very manageable.

I'm very impressed with the amount of connectivity options though.
