It did exactly as stated and the .smbpasswd file is a nice touch. One note: some modern distros will require the the use of 'cifs' instead of 'smbfs' in the /etc/fstab file. Otherwise, you might get this error: mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbfs' Hope this helps someone else. Cheers! Great article! It did exactly as stated and the .smbpasswd file is a nice touch.
