This means Windows is looking for login credentials before it will
allow you to access the share. Suppose you are user 'Jean' on your
Windows machine,"WINDOZE" and you use a password of "foo". You want to
get to the Windows share called "MYSHARE" and mount it locally on your
FBSD box on /mnt. Then the command is:
mount_smbfs //JEAN at WINDOZE/MYSHARE /mnt
You'll get prompted for a password and, when you enter it, the mount
will be established.
You can automate this whole business by learning how to populate the
/etc/nsmb.conf file with the right stuff.
