On my 5.2CURRENT:

1. with one of the following in fstab:
//itetcu at fnan/d /vol/fnan/d smbfs  rw,noauto,username=itetcu,password=q  0 0
//itetcu at fnan/d /vol/fnan/d smbfs  rw,noauto,password=q  0 0
//fnan/d /vol/fnan/d smbfs  rw,noauto,username=itetcu,password='q'  0 0
//fnan/d /vol/fnan/d smbfs  rw,noauto,username=itetcu,password=qcc  0 0
etc.

I get:
itetcu at it> /tmp [18:38:45] 0
 # mount /vol/fnan/d
smbfs: -o username=: option not supported

Having in fstab:
//itetcu at fnan/d /vol/fnan/d     smbfs   rw,noauto 0 0
and in /usr/local/etc/nsmb.conf :
[FNAN:ITETCU:D]
password=q
results in:
itetcu at it> /tmp [18:42:22] 0
 # mount /vol/fnan/d
Password:

However, if I have the password in /root/.nsmbrc, the mount /vol/fnan/d
doesn't promt for password. So it seems that entries in
/usr/local/etc/nsmb.conf aren't used as defaults, but only overrides the
entries in ~/.nsmbrc.
