Mounting SMB the Arch way?

I have some "permanent" SMB shares from a NAS that I'd like have mounted on boot.

The Arch Wiki delinates a lot of competing methods including:

AutoFS
Fusesmb
Smbnetfs
Fstab

Which one is actually the prefered method around here?

For simplicity, I prefer fstab

//merovingian/Data01    /mnt/av-editor    cifs    noauto,soft,password=,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0444,dir_mode=0555        0 0

Re: Mounting SMB the Arch way?

+1 for fstab - of the four you mentioned, this is a most simplistic in my opinion.
