I got it to work!!!!
[NETBIOS:USER:SHARE]
I didn't have the first line of the .nsmbrc file in all caps.
And I added this optional parameter.
-N Do not ask for a password. At run time, mount_smbfs reads the
~/.nsmbrc file for additional configuration parameters and a
password. If no password is found the mount_smbfs prompts for
it.
Thanks to all those who helped.
