Hi,

In Kubuntu Lucid this is done by Kwalletd, AFAIK. You are prompted to
choose a "master password", without what you cannot retrieve the saved
passwords.

I believe that the same will occur with newer versions (Maverick, Natty,
Oneiric and Precise).

If you intend to script the mounting of these shares, this can be done with
a combination of parameters in /etc/fstab. In special, there is a
"credentials" parameter that you can use to inform a file (which must
belong to root and have 0600 permission) with username, password and domain
to your shared windows folders. Use it along with "user" parameter so you
can mount/unmount it without root privileges, and "noauto" parameter, so it
will be mounted only when you demand it.
