samba in command line
 
Hi all,
could somebody enlight me, how can I refer to a directory of a Windows server from command line? I'd like to use it in my script.
Thanks forward,
Istvan

You can mount it in the directory tree through /etc/fstab so that it is persistent and then access it like a normal local file.

Add something like this to your /etc/fstab file:
Code:
//server/share /localMountPoint cifs guest 0 0
Or you can use the smbclient command:

Code:
smbclient \\\\sambaserver\\myshare
For more info, type 'man smbclient'
