mounting cifs via fstab?

so i have 3 shares on my windows server. i can access them from my arch box fine. but the problem is, although i have them setup in my fstab, they don't seem to mount on boot. i have to run mount -a after i'm logged in

any way to fix this?

here's teh lines i have in fstab, is there maybe something missing?

//srv-data/share /home/network/share cifs users,auto,credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,noexec,noperm 0 0
//srv-data/stuff /home/network/stuff cifs users,auto,credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,noexec,noperm 0 0
//srv-data/users/urmom /home/network/urmom cifs users,auto,credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,noexec,noperm 0 0

i was thinking maybe there's something i could add to teh end of my rc.conf, but i wouldn't know what to add to force it to mount them?

Add 'netfs' to your DAEMONS in rc.conf.
