David,

If I understand you correctly jboss.protocol.handler.modules requires a URLStreamHandlerFactory.
The jcifs package does not include a URLStreamHandlerFactory since java.protocol.handler.pkgs only requires a URLStreamHandler.

Hence, I created a seperate jar with a URLStreamHandlerFactory and placed it in the modules/jcifs/main directory. (see code below)
In the META-INF/services directory of this jar contains a text file named java.net.URLStreamHandlerFactory which contains the fully-qualified name of this factory.
In the module.xml file I added this new jar as a resource-root and removed the service-loader-resources directory from the resources list.

the org.jboss.as.standalone module still has a dependency on the jcifs module.

I am still getting the same MalformedURLException unknown protocol: smb.
I put a break point on the createURLStreamHandler method, but it never seems to be called.

public class SmbStreamHandlerFactory implements URLStreamHandlerFactory {
 @Override
 public URLStreamHandler createURLStreamHandler(String protocol) {
  if((protocol != null) && ("smb".equals(protocol.toLowerCase()))) {
   return new jcifs.smb.Handler();   
  }
  
  return null;
 }
}
