I use this for the options in fstab:

credentials=/root/.smbcred,defaults,uid=my-username,gid=my-username,auto,users,exec,vers=3.0

the credentials= points to a file with read-only permissions, owned by root. it contains 

username=xxx
password=yyy

vers=3.0 restricts it to version 3.0 of the SMB protocol. If your file
share supports that version it's a good idea to restrict it on both the
server and the clients, since earlier versions of SMB are rife with holes.

for the uid= and gid= items you can also user the numerical value, from
/etc/passwd and /etc/group.

I find this works fine with my NAS box, which I talk to via SMB.
