Here it works like this:

,----[ from my box ]
| fernst@live:~$ cat /etc/fstab | grep ^//
| //sleep/Desktop /sleep/Desktop  smbfs  
user,noauto,fmask=660,dmask=770,username=XXX,password=XXX,uid=1000,gid=1000    
0       0
| fernst@live:~$ ls /sleep/Desktop/ | wc -w
|       0
| fernst@live:~$ mount /sleep/Desktop
| fernst@live:~$ ls /sleep/Desktop/ | wc -w
|       23
`----

Naturally the fstab entry has to be all on one line...

HTH,
