I do remember having had some issues with transition from 16.04 to 
18.04. I just can't remember the exact cause.

If it's any help, here is my fstab entry for samba share mount:

//10.1.1.2/Toni /media/toni/nas_drive cifs 
credentials=/home/toni/bin/config/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlmssp,vers=3.0 
0 0
