Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but:
slapicorion:~$ export USER=`perl -e 'print "A" x 10000'`
slapicorion:~$ smbmount //orion/slapic orion/
Username too long: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA... etc...

smbmount Version 2.0.2

Debian hamm,
ii  smbfs           2.0.2-5        Mount and umount commands for the smbfs.

in line 530 of smbmount.c:
       if (getenv("USER")) {
                char *user = getenv("USER");
                if (strlen(user) >= sizeof(data.username)) {
                        fprintf(stderr, "Username too long: %s\n", user);
                        exit(1);
                }

So I think it's corrected.

Regards,
Slapic
