The point is that the password is for "sudo" and not (in the above examples) for "mount". Neither "your password" nor "account password" tell me if it's the password that sudo wants (for the user running "sudo") or for "username" on the system with the samba share. Both are account passwords, and it's quite possible that both accounts are mine.
