samba - May 1999 - smbmount error: can't find share

I'm using smbfs version 2.0.2 with kernel version 2.0.36 (hence i cannot use
the samba release of smbmount). I am using the following command to mount my 
network share:

smbmount //server2/ftpdir /mnt/server2 -n

The error is:

mount error: No such device
Please look at smbmount's manual page for possible reasons

I've tried all the solutions given in the man page (eg. smbclient works fine
with this share) without any luck. Any help is appreciated :)

Does your smbmount really work like this? smbmount is supposed to be
executed:

smbmount //share/name -c 'mount /mount/point'

At least here.
