Didn't know you could write file://...

This works for me:
//localhost/tmp  /mnt/smb  smbfs  noauto,username=***,password=***  0  0

(the noauto makes it not mount automatically, you may want to change
 that)


And please, in the future send questions on how to use samba to
the samba at samba.org mailing list, not samba-technical.
