smbclient works with _any_ kernel version (2.0.x, 2.1.x, and
2.2.0prex).

smbmount does not!!!

If you use a 2.0.x kernel or a 2.1.x (x < 70), you need the smbfs
package (version 2.0.2, IIRC).

If you use a 2.1.x (x >= 70) or later, you need the smbfsx package.

smbmount from package smbfs and smbmount-2.1.x from package smbfsx
have different syntax. Check the man pages.
