Mount XP shared folder to linux Fedora 1

[Iknowit101]

Hi all, I am trying to gain access to a XP shared folder from linux machine, I am running samba (SMB) but I don't know how to do this.
I have read many how to's and lots of info on the internet but too much information is overwelming, Does anybody can tell me how to acomplish this? Step by step will be great.
Thanks.

It wasn't me, it was someone that looks a lot like me . . . .

This has presumably been answered many times, do a keyword search for "smbmount".

Here's one example:

mount -t smbfs -o ip=your_windoz_addr,username=your_username,password=yourpass //windoz/share /mnt/mount_point


I normally mount windoz boxes onto a directory called /mnt/samba

you can however mount it everywhere (almost), so replace /mnt/mount_point with the linux directory where you want windoz to be mounted.

then try

ls /mnt/mount_point

if everything went well you should see the content of your windoz share.
