man smbmount

He say:-

smbmount {service} {mount-point} [-o options]

      dmask=<arg>
          Sets the directory mask. This determines the permissions
that remote directories
          have in the local filesystem. This is not a umask, but  the
actual  permissions
          for the directories. The default is based on the current umask.

and many other useful options.
