I can not use the double quotes in the fstab file where I want to use it.
Double quotes work fine on the mount command line, but I want to be able to mount the file system with out the entire criptic command line.
Currently I use:

# mount -t smbfs -o username=<myDomainUserName>,uid=<MyLocalUserName> //ServerIPAddress/"Shared Name With Spaces" /mnt/mydir

This Works. But the setup does not seem to work in the fstab file so all I need to type at the command line is:

mount /mnt/mydir

I would much perfer this method and I really do not want to write a script to execute either.

to get to a share (not on one of my machines so I have not control over
the share name) and it has spaces in the share. How do I put it into
the /etc/fstab file so I can automount on boot? Any help would be
appreciated.
