Thank you for your reply.
Yes, that's what I did at those two Password: prompts above. Otherwise,
sudo would have put one of it's silly error messages after the first
password propt.

I did modify sudoers to allow wheel to run that without a sudo password,

Password:
mount_smbfs: unable to open connection: syserr = Authentication error
The same mount_smbfs command line and the same password works when I run
the command as root.
Any other suggestions I might try?
