Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew how to connect to a windows share. I know the server, ip, share, workgroup, and I have a username/password. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks. Jill

`man smbmount` is pretty helpful here's some typical mounts i use: mount -t smbfs //matt/c$ /mnt/smb -o username=Administrator mount -t smbfs //slug/space /mnt/space in your case you want: mount -t smbfs //IP/SHARE /mnt/localmount -o username=USERNAME then when you hit enter it'll prompt you for PASSWORD -mike
also....using domain authentication the syntax is backwards mount -t smbfs //server/share /mnt/location -o username=user/msdomainname --- Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> wrote:

Also: smbclient -L <IP> or maybe it's smbclient -L //<IP> is a helpful command to list the shares available from a machine with that IP address. BR
the way I usually do it is mount -t smbfs //<ip or name of windows server>/<sharename> /mnt/mountpoint -o username=MYUSERNAME,workgroup=MYWORKGROUPorDOMAIN. eg mount -t smbfs //fileserv/homes /home/freak4u/NTHome -o username=freak4u On 7/25/05, Brett Russ <icycle@gmail.com> wrote:
