\_ Actually...I thought it should have been...
\_ 
\_ \\\\ntserver\\bob etc...

Heh...yuh, I've just assumed that the writer(s) of smbmount would be
smart enough to handle either variety of slashes, so long as they came
in the right numbers.  

Dunno that I'd mix and match them though.  :-)

Having "/\\ntserver\/bob" on the command line/script would probably
confuse the snot out of some folks, particularly if it worked.
