The command for mounting a share is:
mount -t smbfs -o username=USER,password=PASS //server/share /mnt/point

Or you can add an entry in /etc/fstab like this:

//server/share /mnt/point  smbfs   username=USER,password=PASS 0 0

type this to test:
# mount /mnt/point

hope this helps.

You can type man mount for the full help.
