-N was the correct option and worked like a charm.

I've set up a .nsmbrc file which will get me past a password login if I try to mount it after a log in, and I've added the following line to my fstab file. //guest@server/DataHeap /mnt/server smbfs rw 0 0 Now, since my .nsmbrc file is in my home directory, it's clearly not read during boot up and the whole process pauses waiting for me to input an empty password. Can I somehow add a flag to fstab to tell it it's only a guest account and thus doesn't need a password or perhaps move the .nsmbfs file somewhere where it's picked up at boot time? Any ideas?
