I'm not sure if it also applies to FreeBSD but under Linux you can specify the following mount options in /etc/fstab to a samba share: credentials=/etc/samba/credentials It points to a file (/etc/samba/credentials) which contains username and password in the format username = someuser password = somepass The file should only be readable by root.
