Thanks, but in /etc/fstab I have username/password as options so I don't
have to type all that everytime ;)
What is weird about this situation (and what no one has addressed) is
why gnomba (gtk frontend for samba) will mount these shares fine but I
cannot mount them from the command line.  What does gnomba do that I am
not?
