'mount -t smbfs' is really just a pointer to 'mount_smbfs', and everything works just fine under 10.1.5 (actually, 10.0 through 10.1.5...), assuming you do things right (i.e. have your permissions set correctly and whatnot).

mounting an smb share should be as easy as:

where 'servername' is the NetBIOS name of the server (an IP address may also be substituted), 'user' is a valid user on that server, and 'share' is the name of the share you wish to mount locally (you'll most likely have to create the /Volumes/share directory)

AutomountMaker for Mac OS v.1.3.4 AutomountMaker is a tool for mounting filesystems of type SMB, AFP, FTP and others. After having created your files of script you can open ‘System Preference’, choose ‘Login’ and drag and drop in the list. Donations will ensure that AutomountMaker and other applications are updated and maintained, and new ones developed! Mountafp is a program launched by mount when specified witht the afp type. I'd suppose the options are the same as the mount options (for example, read-only access, etc.).

I'll also note that if you place your mount in the /Volumes directory, Finder.app will see it, and place an icon for it on the desktop (assuming your Finder preferences are set to place shared volumes on the desktop). If the share isn't appearing on your desktop, use the Go to folder... command in the Go menu in the Finder, and point it to /Volumes, the share will appear on the desktop as soon as you click on its icon in the Finder.

doing a manual mount like this will leave Finder.app unable to unmount the share, but if you feel the need to manually mount a share, you should of course be prepared to manually unmount it using:

If you are still having troubles unmounting the share, unmount as root:

none of this functionality requires anything remotely related to fink, as it is standard Darwin functionality

AutomountMaker

v1.4.8

Easily mount your shared folders.

Note

Due to new bundle app ID the auto update mechanism will can fail. When it happens please delete the old version manually and download the current version.

I'm sorry for this trouble.

AutomounMaker is an easy to use macOS tool to create scripts that will mount an AFP, FTP, WebDAV(http), NFS or SMB network share.

You can use the script as a Startup Item in your user's session config to automatically mount the given share upon login.
If you use always the same shared volume on your desktop, AutomountMaker is more easy than the classic Connect to Server... proposed by Apple.
