I would like ot know how to mount a WinXP share?
I disabled 'simple file sharring' in windows, so for the other PC's on my network to connect to my PC, they have to have a user account on my PC that matches the same user/pass that they log into their box with.

First,

emerge samba

Then,

Code: Select all

mount -t smbfs -o username=your-login-name/DOMAINNAME-OR-WORKGROUP,password=the-password //windows-machine-name/share-name /your-dir-to-mount

Example:
