I had written a shell script to handle a similar situation.
IIRC it went something like this -

#!/bin/bash -x
export PASSWD=foobar
smbmount //name-of-win-machine/share-name /mnt -o username=administrator
rsync /mnt /backup/name-of-win-machine/share-name

The PASSWD variable is set to the value of the administrator
password. Do check out the man pages of smbclient and smbmount.

Hope this helps.
