On Solaris fstab is vfstab, and mtab is mnttab, parsing these files is no good unless it is done in some portable way. (Not that smbfs even works on Solaris) I would think that persistent share selection should be saved in the registry and accessed through smbclient rather than smbfs, then smb shares would work for all OSs supporting Samba, not just those supporting smbfs.
IMHO There are already too many linux centrix assumptions in wine, please, lets not add any more .
Perhaps the note below (from the linux man page for getmntent(3)) might be relevant or useful to someone who wants to implement such a thing in a portable way?
"SysV also has a getmntent() function but the calling sequence differs, and the returned structure is different. Under SysV /etc/mnttab is used. BSD 4.4 and Digital Unix have a routine getmntinfo(), a wrapper around the system call getfsstat()."
