Mounting Samba Shares w/ Solaris

linux_pioneer · 11-07-2003, 11:59 PM

I'm running Solaris 8 and Samba. I can see my sparc station on the domain from my linux and windows workstations. How do I browse the network from my sparc station. I notice in solaris there is no smbmount as is in linux. What's the best way to do this?

do you have smbclient?

Maybe you only installed the server.

mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.2/share_name /path_to_mount_point

i can use smbclient to get files ftp style but i would rather mount the shares. w/ solaris 8, the -t is not an option.

try it without the -t, just a guess..

mount //192.168.0.2/share_name /path_to_mount_point
