A nmbd/smbd is not required, really. You need basically of "insmod smbfs",
and the "smbmount" program:
# smbmount '//host/service' /samba
The problem is the "host" part: it requires the correct NETBIOS name
of the sharing workstation. You can check the name with:
# smbclient -L "host" -U "user"
You can helps adding the -I option
# smbmount ... -I ip-of-host ....
If the service requires authentication:
# smbmount .... -U user -P password
