Thank you so much for that little clairification.  Show's empathy and understanding.  ;)
 
I have 30min available today to figure out how to do this.  heh 
 
 
Ok, great SMBclient is up and running.   Mission accomplished.   So I understand I have to figure out how to mount them.  Nothing in the SMB man, maybe man mount.  No nothing there.  Syntax "mount type device dir"   I've tried "mount ntfs mailserver c$"  and several variotions.  There is no example of mounting an NT network share.   Is there a one liner that could help here to get the NT shares accessable via command line or better yet through the GUI?
 
How about enabling others to telnet and ftp into the linux box.  Is there an easy starting point, or just man telnet?

Instead of pouring thru the entire Samba installation and documentation...
 
Try
 
"smbclient -L NTBOX -U USER"
 
where   NTBOX is the name of your NT server and USER is the name of the authorized user you have set up on the NT machine.
 
This will produce a list of shares. If you can see them, you're set to go.
 
Then, "man smbclient" to learn how to mount the shares...

Can anyone direct me towards to the quickest way to figure out how to get my linux box to see my WinNT shares?
 
Same with allowing telnet access into the Linux box?
 
 
I've got the network card drivers loaded and I can get on the internet through the LAN..  just don't know how to see my NT boxes.
 
I've gotten suggestions like  read the man pages.  So I found at least a 100 of them..  they have commands like netconf, linuxconf...  but there are no descriptions next to the links.
 
Thanks for your help!
