I don't think that's actually the issue. Chris, you need to set up an entry in /etc/fstab for this with the option user which allows non-root users to mount and umount the share. Something like this:
//sambamachine/samba-share/ /mnt/samba smbfs user 0 0
fstab entries would be mounted with *mount*, he already said that he was using smbmount, which means that he probably hasn't got them in fstab, and probably only mounts them when needed.
So, smbmount and smbumount are the correct answer. WARNING: if the smbmount stops responding it is occassionally necessary to become root and use umount.
