Anyway, your solution works. But you may be better to make the command:
mount -a -t cifs
which will restrict it to just mounting the cifs mounts.

I have resolved this issue by adding "mount -a" to /etc/rc.local. fstab
mounts are attempted before the required modules are loaded (my
interpretation of the problem following reading various forums and
trying a few things as below).

Hi, I can't figure out why the following 2 lines from /etc/fstab are
failing to mount the drives, though they will mount manually by doing
"sudo mount //jupiter/backup" or "sudo mount /network/jupiter/data/".
//jupiter/data /network/jupiter/data cifs
credentials=/home/roger/.smbpasswd 0 0
//jupiter/backup /network/jupiter/backup cifs
