Years ago I was given advice like this - obviously you will have to 
modify appropriately.  I did manage to get this to work many years ago - 
no idea if it will work now.


   mkdir /mnt/bengal

   mount -t smbfs  //bengal.missouri.edu/JohnsonG  /mnt/bengal  -o 
workgroup=UMC-USERS,username=montgomerysmiths

You can add additional options such as ",password=xxxxx" 
or--better--supply password via ",credentials=filename".  See "man 
smbmount".  You can make this part of your /etc/fstab auto-mount, or 
make the "smbmnt" command suid so non-root Unix users can mount their 
own files.
