My first guess would be authentication.  You may have mounted the share but
don't have permissions to read/write/execute etc.  Make sure the supplied
password is correct, and you may check out the -U switch.  Oh, and you may
also make sure the domain is correct--that switch is -D or -W or something
if memory serves.
