I don't think this is really helpful but ......

I have had smbmount working on slackware 4.0 / 2.2.6 and 2.3.6-ac1
using samba version 2.0.3.

There is at least one interesting "feature" that you should be aware of:
If you have a mounted smb share (I had one from a win95 box) and the
windows box is shutdown without unmounting the share then the linux kernel
will lock solid. (no sysrq / trace / num lock)
