To share files.

1)Installed, configured and started smb service.  To configure samba you can 
edit /etc/smb.conf(Or similar) or use webmin/swat fo that. Mandrake offers 
samba and NFS client config. as a part of their GUI fdisk program.

2)Proper mapping of samba users and unix users. It's usually done while 
configuring samba.

3)Proper file system permission on linux file systems.

To access other smaba share all you need to do is normal mount command like,

# mount -t smb  -ousername=user,password=xxxx //daithan/Songs /Songs

Provided you have smaba client package installed as indicated above..
