mount samba shares (?)
 
Forgot how to mount a samba share from my other nix box.

It's got user authentication on aswell. can't find any MAN doc's on doing this.

the following should work:

mount -t smbfs //smbsever/share /your mount location -o username=username,password=password

its a whole lot easier to do:
su root
smbmount //smbsever/share /your mount location

well no that's no easier really. ll smbmount is is a thin wrapper to mount with a preset file type. all those options ( -o ) are still applicable to smbmount too.
