Forgot to post the examples:

//helios/export /mnt/helios_smb   smbfs   credentials=/tmp/pass   0 0

The credentials file will contain something like:
user=dilbert
password=d0gb3rt

You'd of course put the credentials file somewhere safe and with
appropriate permissions.

If you don't want any authentication you'll need to make the share public
in the smb.conf file on the server.
