Michael -

I'm no UNIX guru, but here is what i use to gain access via smb to our various Windows
machines from OS X. I've set up the sharing and permissions normally on the Windows boxes.

tell application "Finder"
set theVolume to "smb://domain;username:password@server/sharename"
open location theVolume
end tell

You have to point directly to the sharename. You can't just connect to the server and then
have access to various shares like say from an AFP server.

Hope that helps,
