Oh I see what you're getting at now. Sorry I can't help much there other
than what Oliver Cherrier said or man sh-smbmount.

I believe the -p is used for the netbios-ssn port (ie, 139 by default) so -p
would be used in instances where you want to bind a socket connection to say
a samba server listening on a non-privledged port such as 12345 rather than
default of 139. So the reason you get that error is cause your Win2k box
isn't listening on -p 12345 - as a way to test, try -p 139 to see.

One way I can think of would be with sysctl's but that might not be suitable
for you or the best method. In other words, if you wanted the NFS ports to
be within a certain range - but this is just a thought...

net.inet.ip.portfirst =
net.inet.ip.portlast =
net.inet.ip.porthifirst =
net.inet.ip.porthilast =
--
net.inet.tcp.baddynamic =
net.inet.udp.baddynamic =

Hope this helps somewhat.

Regards.
