This is the way to mount samba share in your linux machine
- Install smbfs package
# aptitude install smbfs
- Create a mount point to mount your samba share
# mkdir /mnt/smbshare
- mount samba share using mount command
# mount -t smbfs -o username=user,password=pass //smbserver/share /mnt/smbshare
Here user is the samba user who have access to the share. pass is the password for user. smbserver is machine name where samba is configured. share is the shared directory in samba server.
- Adding samba mount to fstab
We can add mount to fstab, so that system will mount samba share every time system reboot
similar fstab entry is like this
//smbserver/share /mnt/smbshare smbfs defaults,user,noauto,username=user,password=pass 0 0
