I think there's software that will give you the equivalent of
Network Neighborhood. I tried one but it would not connect to the share.

What will work if you know the name of the server is 

  smbclient -L servername

That gets you a list of available shares. I made smbmnt suid so that I
could mount Windows shares under my own home directory as a normal user.
I
created a mnt subdirectory in my home directory and mounted shares like
this:

  smbmount //winserver/reports mnt/reports

I also added a few of these commands to my ~/.bash_profile so that they
would run when I logged in. The smbumount commands were in my
~/bash_logout.
