Try running smbclient -L <machinename>. If Samba is installed correctly it will work. Then try the procedure outlined below:
mount -f smbfs -o username=administrator,password=<password> //<machinename>/,sharename> /<mount point>/<linuxdir> Substitute any valid username for administrator. Make sure the mount point, /mnt as an example, exists and the linuxdir exists as well. Don't mount on top of another directory as you will hide the contents of that directory until the mount is removed.

Hi.. I installed Samba server in my Suse 7.0 system. I need to configure it for external NT domain authentication and so issued the smbpasswd command from the root id. It joined the domain successfully, but when I try to access any defined share from an NT machine(with encryption enabled), it fails to authenticate any NT userid and password. Is anything else needs to be done? Kindly help.. Vinod.
