Help mounting Windows share in UNIX

We recently upgraded one of our engineering servers, and now the lone UNIX box that houses older CAD files can not connect to it. I have tried every variation of mount I can find, but to no avail. Help is appreciated. Here are the specs:

Server: Windows 2003 x64 with Unix Services for Windows loaded; server uses same IP as old server, and alias to old server name created (both reply to ping request on UNIX box)

Client: Integraph TD-30 running SunOS 5.5.1 (System V Release 4).

The original command before the change:
mount -f nfs wrengcad1:d/wr6105 /.wr6105

Commands tried:
Code:
mount -F nfs 172.30.3.71:/wr6105 /.wr6105
mount -F nfs 172.30.3.71:e/Data_Shares/wr6105 /.wr6105
mount -F nfs wrengcad1:e/Data_Shares/wr6105 /.wr6105
mount 172.30.3.71:/wr6105 /.wr6105
mount nfs://172.30.3.71/wr6105 /.wr6105
mount 172.30.3.71:E:Data_Shares:wr6105 /.wr6105

Most common return on these is path not found.

MOUNT.NFS(8)                                                  System Manager's Manual                                                 MOUNT.NFS(8)

NAME
mount.nfs, mount.nfs4 - mount a Network File System SYNOPSIS
mount.nfs remotetarget dir [-rvVwfnsh ] [-o options] DESCRIPTION
mount.nfs is a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality. mount.nfs is meant to be used by the mount(8) command for mounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone command with limited functionality. remotetarget is a server share usually in the form of servername:/path/to/share. dir is the directory on which the file system is to be mounted. Under Linux 2.6.32 and later kernel versions, mount.nfs can mount all NFS file system versions. Under earlier Linux kernel versions, mount.nfs4 must be used for mounting NFSv4 file systems while mount.nfs must be used for NFSv3 and v2. OPTIONS
-r Mount file system readonly. -v Be verbose. -V Print version. -w Mount file system read-write. -f Fake mount. Don't actually call the mount system call. -n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip making an entry. -s Tolerate sloppy mount options rather than fail. -h Print help message. nfsoptions Refer to nfs(5) or mount(8) manual pages. NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and mount(8) manual pages. FILES
