This seems to be incorrect for smbfs

Try 
        /server/share /path/to/mount_point \
                username=WindowsUsername,\
                password=WindowsPassword

        or 
                credentials=YourCredentialFile

Take a look at "man smbmount".


The uid and gid parameters for the 'local' view aka unix view.
