Don't you need to provide a username in the project key:
project -fstype=smb,username=user,password=kwe12 ://10.10.0.2/project

maybe you smbmount works because it take the $USER as username , or 
whatever ... ?? and is fstype = smb correct (perhaps under solaris) me for 
linux it's smbfs !.

just give it a try.

For me, for automounting windows shares it looks like this under linux RH 
7.2

NTmci   -fstype=smbfs,username=procacci,credentials=/etc/smb.auth ://atlas/Mci

having /etc/smb.auth containing
username=user
password=password

good luck !
