I have this in my config:

    (file-system
     (device "//my.nas/the-share")
     (title 'device)
     (options "uid=1000,gid=1000,credentials=/etc/samba.credentials")
     (mount-point "/nas")
     (type "cifs")
     (mount? #f)
     (create-mount-point? #t))

And it does the right thing when I run “mount /nas”.

Does this help?
