In "//s.o.m.e.i.p/f", you need to provide a valid hostname and not an ip.
1. Add the target computer's netbios name and ip to /etc/samba/lmhosts
2. Use "smbmount //hostname/share /mntpnt -o username=whatever"
You should be presented with a password prompt and then the share should be mounted.
You aren't planning on accessing this filesystem across the internet are you? Given the fact that sharing a filesystem on an untrusted interface isn't the most secure thing to do, some isp's are blocking netbios traffic now as well.
