To my knowledge, Solaris cannot actually "mount" a smb shared filesystem.
That seems to be something that only Linux can do because Linux comes with a
smb filesystem kernel driver.  However, you can "browse" a smb shared
filesystem using smbclient which is similar to accessing an FTP server.  I
could VERY easilly be wrong on this. :)
