I tend to mount these things by hand first - before I set up fstab just
so I can test these options
mount -t smbfs //SERVERIP/Share /home/windows -o
"username=joe,password=joe_password"
or I think you can use cifs instead - much the same options
and then you should have no problems translating this to fstab (though I
am not sure that unix permissions will carry much sway with the windows
server).
