> What do I need in order to map a drive to a linux box?

   When you say "map a drive" you're being a little vague.  Since you
mentioned Samba I'll assume you're referring to some sort of Windows server
running TCP/IP as its transport protocol and NetBIOS/SMB handling the
shares.

   In that case, Samba is all you need.  Samba contains a utility called
smbclient which will allow GNU/Linux to access NetBIOS/SMB printers, drive
shares, and such.  <http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/> contains details.
