I am running Ubuntu 18.04. If I open the "Files" GUI, I can browse (via "Other Locations") to smb://server-name/home. The GUI automatically fetches my login credentials and forwards them to the SMB server.
I would like to turn this into a file-system path so that I can use command line tools. The obvious approach is to use mount. However all the instructions I have seen (for example, the answers to this question) either involve re-entering my password (tedious), or storing the password on disk (insecure).
Edit:
I would like to mount an smb share that requires a username+password without having to provide either (but just use my login credentials). I do not want to store a copy of the password on disk.
