errno.h says:

#define EINVAL          22      /* Invalid argument */

Please try mounting it at command line using "credentials=' options and just
after failure confirm with "echo $?" the same error code. 

Also try mounting //192.168.0.2/share under a mounting point under your home
directory owned by your user (say myshare, f.i.). Does this work?

"strace -f" may also help.
