No, not from /etc/fstab with "mount -a". mount doesn't know about
smbmount (although you can use umount on them).

Actually, the nfs filesystems should be mounted separately from the
local filesystems, and this is a GoodThing(TM).

Ahh, a system with REAL sysV bootup configuration! :-)
Redhat uses a /etc/rc.d/init.d/nfsfs script to do this, and it would
be almost trivial to either:
- edit this file to include a call to smbmount,
or, much more preferably:
- add a smbmount script to that directory, and add an appropriate
symbolic link to the /etc/rc.d.rc?.d/ directories to stop/start it.
This script should source an appropriate configuration file, eg,
/etc/sysconfig/smbmount, to make how it works easy to modify.
Check out the other scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ (eg, gpm) to see
how it all works. (Very cleaver, actually).
If you do make a smbmount boot script setup, then don't forget to save
it all somewhere before you upgrade! :)
