Here is how I access files on a windows pc
mkdir /home/abcd
smbmount //abcd/C /home/abcd
If the share C on windows pc \\abcd has password, smbmount will ask you for password.
That's all. Now I can access the files through /home/abcd.
My smbmount version is 1.0.5a. There were lot of problems with earlier versions.

Sateesh.
