Annoyed at the lack of ability to browse for SMB servers/shares, I just started playing around. I did a "locate smb" from the terminal and was greeted with a program called "mount_smbfs"
From the manpage (man mount_smbfs):
"mount_smbfs - mounts a shared resource from an SMB file server
. . .
EXAMPLES
The following examples illustrate how to connect to a SMB server SAMBA as
user GUEST and mount shares PUBLIC and TMP:
mount_smbfs -I samba.mydomain.com //guest@samba/public /smb/public
mount_smbfs -I 192.168.20.3 -E koi8-r:cp866 //guest@samba/tmp /smb/tm
p
It is possible to use fstab(5) for smbfs mounts:
//guest@samba/public /smb/public smbfs rw,noauto 0 0"
Needless to say, while not very "Macish" in terms of a gui way to search for and mount shares, at least I can put my most commonly used entries in the fstab
