mount -t smbfs //lkg5f.homenet.com/DISK 2 /mnt/someplace |

if the share is password protected, after the smbfs, add -o |
| 29 |
username=whatever,password=whatever |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
only root will be able to do this. You might want to try to avoid |
| 32 |
spaces in your share names in the future...just makes things easier |
| 33 |
on the unix side. |
