FSTAB Auto Mount

Hi all.

Hope someone can help with what seems like a simple problem.  Last week
I updated one of my notebooks to Intrepid for a few reasons but mainly
to test it out on my work/Uni's network environment.  After an initial
hiccup (gnome & ubuntu-desktop not installing) I've got a surprisingly
stable system that functions just as well, if not better, than
Hardy...except one thing, my network shares no longer mount at start-up.
If I execute "sudo mount -a" all the shares mount fine.  The local ext3
partition mounts at start-up, just not the network shares.  Any idea on
what I can do to fix this issue?  The contents of my /etc/fstab are:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
#  -- This file has been automaticly generated by ntfs-config -- 
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
