Take a look at sharity-light in the ports collection.

$ pkg_info sharity-light-1.0
Information for sharity-light-1.0:

Comment:
An userland smbfs --- SMB to NFS protocols converter

Description:
If you want a short description of what Sharity-Light can do for you: you
can 
mount volumes exported by Windows or related operating systems on your
Unix 
machine. For a more detailed description I will quote from the README
file:

What does Sharity-Light do?
===========================
If you know smbfs for Linux: Sharity-Light is roughly the same. It is
derived from smbfs, but runs as a user level program, not in the kernel.
If you know samba: Sharity-Light is roughly the opposite: a client for the
Lanmanager protocol. If you know neither of these: Sharity-Light lets you
mount drives exported by Windows (f.Workgroups/95/NT), Lan Manager, OS/2
etc. on Unix machines.


For more information, see http://www.obdev.at/Products/

I have used this with windows and samba shared volumes without problems.

cheers,
Carey Nairn
