Are you trying to mount Windows shares under Samba? If so here's what 
my fstab looks like:

//ken@amiserver/c	/smb/amiserver	smbfs	rw	0	0

I'm mounting the share named c on a Windows 2000 server named 
amiserver at the mount point /smb/amiserver on my FreeBSD server.

Edit /etc/nsmb.conf and set the workgroup, addr and password values 
for your windows share.
