Just do:
smbclient //server/share
You might need the -W flag. The command options are pretty simple. Type smbclient --help or similar. Is there no man page?

Using mount with smbfs works on Linux only. There are commerial products for other *nix though. I think one is Sharity. If you happen to be using Java look at jCIFS.
