That is a good reference.

Mounting Windows[tm] shares keep in mind, that you have the proper
permissions on Windows[tm] side as well use proper permissions for the
mount point as well. Certainly it is advised to use the options uid, gui
and umask when using "mount -t smbfs" or smbmnt. And do not put the
authentification data - username and password - into the /etc/fstab
file, but make use of a credentials file in the user's home.
