Well, this is not really what Im after.  I want to tell smbmount to use
my current logged-in linux username and password to login to shares.  So
aslong as I keep my local password synced with the windows network
password all is well.
The KDE control panel helps alot - I use it at the moment - It just
needs a check box saying - "Use local login credentials".  At fail it
should come up with login dialog.
