Alternate SMB/CIFS port

Hi all, how do I specify an alternate SMB/CIFS port to use (non-445)?

(I have a Windows file share behind a firewall (over which I have no
control). This can be accessed from another (non-firewalled) subnet, so I'd
like to tunnel an SSH/TCP connection to get to it, but to do so, I need to
listen on a local port. Since 445 is already occupied by the local Windows
file sharing, I need to specify an alternate port to connect to, eg
\\localhost:446, but entering that string into explorer doesn't work.)

Thanks in advance. Merry Xmas!

You can't.
