This is the format in the last /etc/fstab I tried. I started out using the credentials option and changed to specify the username and password just to make sure I didn't have something wrong with the file that contained the username and pw. The uid, gid, fmask and dmask was added this last time as well, before I had not specified those. This format looks like what everyone has specified except the 0 0 at the end. I had found this message in one of the logs and wasn't sure if it was related to this statement in /etc/fstab: In var/log/messages that says "kernel: smbfs: module not supported by Novell, setting U taint flag.
