 Here's another datapoint...
 
 I am running FreeBSD 7.0-RC1, and I just got a reboot on doing the mount
 itself (i.e. "mount_smbfs ...").
 
 I suspect this could be the same issue.  I had network connectivity at
 the time, but the Windows box *had* been firewalled during serveral
 previous attempts to mount (this is due to a recent upgrade from Windows
 2000 to Windows XP Pro), resulting in timeouts.  Once unfirewalled, I
 was then getting authentication errors because the drive on the Windows
 box did not have sharing enabled (Windows XP must have disabled this
 during upgrade).
 
 Once I got this setting changed (and while the Windows box was busy for
 a while setting permissions on files), I tried to mount the Windows
 share, causing a reboot  When FreeBSD came back up, I could mount and
 umount fine.
