You are reading the wrong parts of the manpage. mount only starts
smbmount. Lots of options are not relevant, none of them are handled by
mount.

No, that does not work. You must always use smbmount to mount smbfs. For
user mounts you can not start smbmount with mount without getting those
warning messages.

Don't know, and you should. For some reason the value from fstab isn't
reaching smbmount. Try starting it without using mount.
