[GLLUG] Please lecture me in Network Files Sharing

[Ben Chavez]

In case anyone was interested in this issue.
I got it to work with the following command

# mount.cifs //server/share /mnt/share -o domain=SambaDomain, rw, 
file_mode=0777, dir_mode=0777, uid="$USER", username=SambaUser, 
password=SambaPassword

where:
server = local ip of samba server, eg: 10.0.0.229
SambaDomain = WORKGROUP (usually that is the default but... )
SambaUser= obvious
SambaPassword=123456

The share right after the server is the directory we want to mount
/mnt/share is the directory in which the remote directory is going to be 
mounted.

If it doesnt work is because the firewall in your OS is blocking all 
remote connections perhaps

I got that lecture from our friends at linuxquestions.org

And I apologize for calling Thunar a third world file manager.

Have a nice weekend.
