cifs filesystem not supported by the system #1

forgive me if this is not the place to ask, or if i am a fool, but does the included image not work with cifs? i couldnt find an xda thread or really anywhere else to ask a question about this. i'm trying to mount a windows share that has updated port numbers for an avahi service that needs to change pretty regularly.

I've never used this in the way you describe... What you get here is not as feature complete as say a fully fledged Linux vm, but it can do most of the things you can do in a Linux environment, at the end of the day though, it's just a fancy chroot/proot

i understand, but i am asking, can it mount network shares? it can run avahi, but i am having issues getting it to mount a network share.

No idea, it can mount filesystems, have never tried network shares specifically

It's likely a kernel side restriction or a permissions restriction you are seeing. You are limited to whatever the base Android kernel supports and that depends on the device, because in the case of Android the device vendor typically maintains the kernel.
