Just add the user/passwd fields as options, like you would noexec or

(The fsck/dump options are both set to 0 since the server's OS would be
responsible for the raw filesystem maintenance.)
Thanks Peter. Looks like I have two options here, either putting
the username and passwd in fstab, or in a credentials file as suggested
by Akemi in a different response. Now for another question: how do I
check whether the mounts are still active and haven't gone stale (prior
to copying files to them)?
This is all happening on a private network and there's the
possibility of the remote server getting rebooted at times. I need some
failsafe way of checking those mounts.
