SMBFS has been deprecated for years.  You also forgot the workgroup/domain
parameter, which you will need if the 'Doze box belongs to a
workgroup/domain/whatever.  You want:

mount -t cifs -o user=JOE,password=NNNN,domain=EVIL //BORG/SHARE
/mnt/somewhere

...note that BORG must be resolvable via DNS, if not, you can of course use
its IP.  If it sits there for many seconds and doesn't return, you may need to
add port=139 to the option string, as some CIFS tools will default to 445 and
sit there forever when they don't get a response from 445.  If you're doing
this as a normal user, then the normal user must own the mountpoint.  "man
mount.cifs" for the many, many options that are available.
