Yeap, I know that bit, but I'm trying to see if there as anyway to save me 
hardcoding values into scripts.

I'm trying to get drives mapped for each user as they login, without using 
/etc/fstab with passwords and entries for each user, so I'm using smbmount.

This machine is due to be integrated into a NT domain, to be used by a normal 
user - I'm trying to do everything automagically.

Sure, I can put smbmount [blah] -o password=mypassword, which is fine, until 
the user changes their password.

Erg. Headache.

Baz.
