smbfs is deprecated and should not be used. Its replacement is cifs. Like
so:
mount -t cifs //BORG/SHARE /mnt/borg -o domain=WORKGROUP,user=JOEBOB
...will find the share SHARE on the machine BORG and attempt to mount it on
mountpoint /mnt/borg using the user JOEBOB from domain WORKGROUP. It'll ask
you for a password if one's required. You may be able to leave the domain=
off if your 'Doze network doesn't use domains.
IME, NFS is faster than Samba, which may be something to think about.
