According to the smbmount I've got (2.0.7):
smbmount //server/dir /mountpoint -o username=teacher,password=topsecret
Which version are you running?
If you're using one with the -U for username, does the password need a -P in front of it?
a quick test (sad sunday mode) shows that smbmount //server/dir /mnt -o username=user, password=pass works although i get a warning (probably from my smb.conf) also note that it does advise on my version (2.0.7) to use mount -t smbfs -o username=user,password=pass /server/dir /mnt instead Malc
