smbclient

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.14/D /mnt/server_d -o user=john,servern=SERVER,sec=lanman
sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.14/E /mnt/server_e -o user=john,servern=SERVER,sec=lanman
sudo mount -t cifs //sneezy/www /mnt/sneezy_www -o username=john

sneezy_www is just an empty directory (folder) in the /mnt directory. I think you have to be root to create it.

umount mount-point

smbtree

Restart the samba service:

sudo service smbd restart

Restart networking

sudo service network-manager restart

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.0.14/D /mnt/server_d -o user=john,servern=SERVER,sec=lanman,noserverino

allowed me to see the missing files, but access came up as -rwxr-xr-x
I fixed the access (sort of) using ,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777
None of this fixed access through the file browser (nautilus), which uses gvfs as a front end for smb
ubuntu box 406466
