The ability to mount SMB shares is a Linux thing, and I'm note aware of any
other Unix flavours which can do at the kernel level OOTB.

There exists a package known as rumba, which allows you to mount SMB shares
in userland.  There's a FreeBSD port for it, but be aware that this is
pre-beta code, and I've found it to be unstable.  YMMV.
