mount.cifs //BUILDS/BIOS /mnt/builds -o
credentials="/root/.smbpw","domain=foo.com"

^^^ works fine.

Putting the following in /etc/fstab fails to work with 'mount -a'

//BUILDS/BIOS           /mnt/builds             cifs
credentials=/root/.smbpw,domain="foo.com"

mount error 13 = Permission denied
