That solved the problem!

I did as you suggested and it worked. Then I compared the directories I
had in my $HOME/mnt that I use for mounting samba shares. My ~/mnt was:
drwx--x--- 8 hs hs 4096 Jul 12 12:18 .
drwxr-x--x 83 hs hs 4096 Aug 1 09:19 ..
drwx--x--- 2 hs hs 4096 Nov 1 2009 Share


Changed them with "chmod -R o+X ~/mnt" and I have these now:
drwx--x--x 8 hs hs 4096 Jul 12 12:18 .
drwxr-x--x 83 hs hs 4096 Aug 1 09:19 ..
drwx--x--x 2 hs hs 4096 Nov 1 2009 Share


Now my earlier commands also work. e.g.
$> sudo mount -v -t cifs //192.168.0.8/Share /home/hs/mnt/Share -o user=hs

So the solution was that the mount point I have must be executable by all.

Thank you!
