Properly mounting a windows share

Hi! I have a windows share that I have set up in fstab, but I keep having issues accessing it. I periodically get a message saying:

“Please enter the username and password for “workgroup” on 192.xxx.xxx.xxx here”

When I enter the password to the windows share, I do have access to open files, but in some siutations, I am unable to save the files or to attach to emails. The line in my fstab file says the following:

//192.xxx.xxx.xxx/e /data cifs auto,user,username=xxxxxxx,password=xxxxxxx 0 0

The windows share works flawlessly from windows computers with the same username and password. I would like to get it working the same way under Suse 11.1. Thanks!
