I don't think they are mounted.  You're talking through the Nautilus
program using the SMB protocol, directly.

It's a bit like asking where a FTP site gets mounted when you connect to
it with a FTP client.  It isn't, and you can't access it with some other
program through the directory tree, unless you've got some *other*
system that does mount it onto the tree.

What you say makes sense, especially since under Places the option is
Connect to server, not mount from server.

But that leaves a mystery. The man page of mount indicates the existence
of a mount.smbfs (which does not seem to exist). Then there is smbmount
which I thought used to exist but I can't find it in the distribution.
The implication is that you can mount a file share. Can you? And if you
can , how do you do it?

mount -t cifs //server/share /mnt/point/ -o workgroup=workgroup,username=user,password=password
