Mount Windows shares on proper paths in OS X

I've been trying to get this to work using 10.5.1 on W2k3 Share file. Things that I have found are:

Spaces are evil; If you have a space in the share, get your admin to create another share without spaces (as to not interfere with the current user base)
Escape "$" for hidden shares (/SERVER/HIDDEN\$/)
ensure the AutoMount and StartupParameters.plist are chmod +x
To unmount it is "umount" (remove that first "n")
