OK tried your suggestion, and then tried mixing up the options I still
get the same error which is displayed in a message block.

 SMB connection failed

However in a terminal it mounts,

here is the line from my fstab maybe I have missed something.
//chadwin/music  /home/chadley/mnt/tmp  smbfs
rw,username=chadley,noauto,user

I also tried with the credentials option as follows:

//chadwin/music  /home/chadley/mnt/tmp  smbfs
rw,credentials=/home/chadley/.pwd/pwd,noauto,user

and get the same error.

As you can see I put the mount point in my home dir and I have checked
the owner and is me!
It think its going to be a long night.

Thanks for all the help so far
Chad
