Samba is the SMB protocol implementation of the protocol used by the operating system such as MS Windows MS to sharing files and printers. With SMB you can access the files & printers shared by a Windows computer or to share files & printers on your linux computer.

Share access with smbclient

smbclient allows for accessing other computers share with the interface such as ftp.
Syntaxnya are:

smbclient service [options]

Where service formed / / computer's name / namashare eg / / ntserver / cdrom. For example we want to access the cdrom directory contents of our computers and running ntserver

[zakaria@linux zakaria]$ smbclient "//itcom2/my documents"
Password: 
smb: \>

-U username 
     Connection with another user name from username linux 
 -W workgroup 
     Connection with the other workgroup name than the settings in / etc / smb.conf 
 -n NetBios_Name 
     Connection with a different host name with the computer host name 
 -I IP address 
     Connection to a specific host with the IP. Very useful if Samba does not work to resolve host names on purpose.

In addition it has fuction for ftp that mean can share Windows smbclient can also display a list of directories shared by a computer in a way:

smbclient -L computer_name

Mounting Share with smbmount

Another way to access the share is to mount the remote share to a directory using smbmount. Once mounted you can access your shsre such as access to common directories. Like mount, smbmount must be run by root.

the syntax is:

smbmount service mountpoint [-o options]

Where service in the form / /computer_name / share_name eg / / ntserver / cdrom and mountpoint is the directory that will be mounted. Parameters of his options in the form keyword = value and separated by commas for each parameter.

Where option is often used is:

username = user

•      Connection with another user name from username linux (root)

netbiosname = name

•      Connection by using a different host name with the computer host name

workgroup = name

•      Connection with the workgroup name other than that in the settings in / etc / smb.conf

ip = 1.2.3.4

•      Connection to a particular host with a specific IP such as 1.2.3.4. Very useful if Samba does not work to resolve host names on purpose.

EXAMPLE
[root@linux /root]# smbmount "//itcom2/my documents" /mnt/net/itcom2 -o netbiosname=linux
