Can't mount SMB shares from Linksys NLSU2

I have the following two lines in my fstab file...

//mce/media /media cifs credentials=/home/steve/.smbpasswd,uid=root,rw 0
0

//nas/Disk\0402/DLoads /downloads cifs
credentials=/home/steve/.smbpasswd,uid=root,rw 0 0

.... The first line works. This is a shared folder on a Windows XP computer.

The second line does not work. When I execute "sudo mount -a" I receive a
"mount error 13 = Permission denied"

If I try to mount from the command prompt, I recieve the same error:

sudo mount -t cifs "//nas/Disk 2/DLoads" /downloads -o
username=myuser,password=mypassword

The /downloads folder exists, and has the same permissions as the /media
folder that works. This looks like an authentication problem with the NAS
device, but I browse to smb://nas/Disk 2 in Knoqueror, and the
username/password work here.

Can someone suggest why I can't mount smb shares from my LinkSys NSLU2 NAS
device?

Try mounting as a smb filesystem rather than a cifs filesystem.

Thanks... Unfortunately, still no joy.
