Does your kernel understand the Samba filesystem. You might see if insmod smbfs does anything or making sure it's compiled into your kernel.

All ready tried that, but I'll go ahead and do that again (btw man 8 mount says mount -t smbfs is supported)

I've never had any success with smbmount, it's always told me to use 'mount -t smbfs -o blah blah blah'. I'll go ahead and see if I need to grab that package, though.
