This is what smbmount gives, and it mounts fine.

I wonder if this has to do with the logic in gvfs-mount v smbmount on how they handle usernames and domains. The smbmount command does not require a username or domain to be specified, while gvfs-mount does. My NAS doesn't have usernames associated with folders, and as far as I know I'm entering the correct domain.

Just FYI, replacing name_of_server with ip address in gvfs-mount doesn't change things either.
