smbmount via /etc/fstab?



Hi!

My Linux box does not have a CD-ROM drive (and it's stacked away in
the closet anyway, so I'd not want to use a CD-ROM drive connected
there directly if it had one) so I usually access CDs by smbmounting
the CD-ROM drive from my Windows NT box on my desk.

To do so, I currently have to sudo smbmount with the full parameter
set which I consider a nuisance.

I tried entering //janeway/cdrom /cdrom smb or smbfs into my
/etc/fstab but that doesn't seem to work :-(

How can I do smbmounts via /etc/fstab?

Any hints will be appreciated.

Greetings
Marc
