I am looking online trying to find a procedure to automount a CIFS share but need to use username/domain/pass in the credential file thats referenced in fstab. Its not working, anyone know of a resource that works in CentOS5.1?

If it matters, the unc has a dash and a $ in it, and the password has special characters in it.

This works for me using a credentials file:

username=<DOMAIN><hostname> password=<password>

I know the $ doesn't make a difference because I mount my AD homedir that has a $ at the end, I don't think the dash would make a difference but I'm not a 100% positive.
