Mounting a Windows Share Point on another Windows PC

Post by Neo » Wed Sep 02, 2009 3:02 am

mkdir /mnt/mountpoint

smbmount //server/share /mnt/mountpoint -o username=username

Where:
server = The server's name
share = share point
mountpoint = mount point
username = username with access to the share

From here, you can treat it like any other Linux drive.

To un-mount the above, execute the following command: umount /mnt/mountpoint

Make sure you are not on the mount point when you unmount.
Otherwise you will get the error: Device or resource busy
