[SLUG] Mounting Windows shares

I'm trying to mount an ntfs share on a local computer and I keep getting
this error:

mount: special device <TARGET LOCATION> does not exist

I have read the man and I'm pretty sure I'm using the correct command
(mount -t ntfs -o username=USER,password=PASS //computer/share
/media/newmount) but nothing seems to work. I have tried with other
shares set up with no luck :-/

I'm using SuSE 8.1 Pro and the target machine is XP Pro

Anyone have any advice?
