try this one... you have an old(?) smbmount if it does not know the -c option...
( strange since its a new linux distro ( suse-6.2 ? )
suse-6.2# smbmount /mnt/test //host/folder -U Administrator -P passwd
you should decide to use the old style smbmount or the new one ( download
it/compile/install )
smbmount comes in samba-* ( preferred verson but requires the
-D(USE_SMBMOUNT??) option
smbmount comes also in smbfs-*
think samba comes from http://www.samba.org nowdays...
have fun
