I need to mount a smb share in my laptop. I added it in fstab, but it doesn't seem to be mounting at boot. I need to type mount -a manually to mount it. I think it is because the laptop is not getting connected to the network when its booted. I tried to add a cron to mount it 1 minute after reboot, but it is also not working.
Since I am the only one using this laptop, it is Ok to mount it when I login. So how to add a cronjob to mount it when I login ?

Your tag says you have 14.04 but your question says 16.04. It's important because 16.04 doesn't supportnobootwait. If you really have 16.04, trynofailinstead.

To mount samba share automatically when system reboot, You need to add an entry to the /etc/fstab file.
//server-name/sharename /mountpoint cifs username=smbuser,password=smbpass 0 0
When system reboot, Ubuntu will mount the samba share specified in the /etc/fstab file.
