But did you know that you don't have to mount anymore? Open Konqueror and in the "Location" field type in "smb://windowsservername/share" should go directly or prompt for a password..
True, but if you prefer to have the remote share permanently available, it seems mounting it (automatically or manually) via smbmount is preferred. I'm not sure if connections opened the way you say are kept open if you close that window, but I doubt they are. Smbmount allows you to connect once, and forget about it.
Take a look at /etc/samba/smbfstab as well. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
