Try forward slashes:
smbmount //win/WING <etc> Attempting to use the backslashes always gives me a usage note. And, yes, smbclient likes the backslashes OK, as long as you escape them properly... As an aside, I think it makes some sense *not* to handle the backslashes. I mean, if you mount a VFAT partition, backslashes don't work as directory separators, now do they?
