I built it for Debian Sarge, however I had to use 2.6.11 sources (from 
unstable). 2.6.10 gives
errors.

Howto:

GET CIFS SOURCES:
apt-get install debhelper modutils kernel-package libncurses5-dev


download "http://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.34.tar.gz
" to /root for example
cd /root

tar xvfz cifs-1.34.tar.gz



GET KERNEL SOURCES:
apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.11

cd /usr/src



tar --bzip2 -xvf kernel-source-2.6.11.tar.bz2


REPLACE CIFS WITH 1.34:
mv /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs 
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs_old
mkdir /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs

cp -R /root/cifs-1.34/fs/cifs/* /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/fs/cifs


CONFIG THE KERNEL:
I used the config file from 2.6.8:

cp /boot/config-2.6.8-2-386 /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.11/.config

cd kernel-source-2.6.11

make menuconfig

Include:

File Systems --> Network File Systems --> CIFS support --> CIFS statistics


MAKE THE KERNEL:
make-kpkg clean; make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image


INSTALL THE KERNEL:
dpkg -i kernel-image-2.6.11_10.00.Custom_i386.deb
