samba is giving me no love


Ok, I have a sun webserver and a windows 2000 machine in my little network. The windows 2000 computer has a 100 gig hardrive, so im using it to hold very large video files. Whenever I mount something with smbmount, it doesn't give me any rights to it. when I ls -l the directory with my mounted filesystem on it, it says
d--------- root root
even if i try to chmod or chown it wont let me do it. I need it so I can have it world readable. Is there a special argument that I'm not putting in when I use smbmount on it?

i tried umask=000 and it still does nothing. So far the command im doing is
smbmount \\\\great-white\\sharedshit /home/httpd/html/stuff -
o username=administrator uid=webmaster umask=000

it still is only giving me the
d--------- rights.
