It still doesn't work.
I remember mounting it manually using the command

mount_smbfs -I ipaddress  //guest at samba/mp3s /mtpoint

I don't think substituting ipaddress(eg, 10.1.1.1) for
"samba" in guest at samba will make any sense because I
still have to specify its IP address using the "-I"
option whenever I mount it manually.

tried it also, but didn't work.

Anymore idea? thanks.
