Here's what I do:

set up .smb_pass in each user's home dir
cat .smb_pass
username=<username>
password=<password>

use the cifs module (I usually use modconf but $ sudo modprobe -i cifs
should do it).

and put the following in /etc/fstab (having created the mount point):

//server/sharename /mountpoint 
credentials=/home/cma/.smb_pass,uid=<user>,gid=<group>,file_mode=0660,dir_mode=0770
 0       0
