It's not so much particular applications that require access to the
same data via NFS and CIFS. There is, however a common desire to share
the same data to different client OS'.
All of the unix CIFS clients that I know of (including Linux's) trail
NFS in several areas. For instance, if you need to have the same data
accessible by multiple users using their own credentials then you need
multiple mounts.
