smbclient -L //boxname , to check if there are shares available and
basic NBT (name resolution and basic connect as IPC$) does work.

mount -t smbfs //boxname/share /dosc -o username=user,password="password"

nope, not only. many SMB tools refer to the samba config for their
configuration, but this can be overriden. you should have configured the
name resolution and authentification stuff already there. enter the
above information into /etc/fstab:

//boxname/share /dosc smbfs username=user,password=password	0	0
