http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Filesystems/Mounting_smbfs_Shares_Permanently.html 
is a good read to do this quickly, easily, reliably.

Along with the smbclient (and smb server if you want to share from this 
machine to the home LAN also) as noetd by Detlef.

As root, remember to add samba users on all your machines: 
# smbpasswd -a username 
rinse, lather repeat as necessary.

Other useful commands that can be used in KDE and Konqueror specifically:
fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share   to browse a share on a server
fish://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/           to browse all shares on a server
smb:/                               to see all workgroups in your LAN
smb://workgroup    to see all the servers in a workgroup
smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]   to see available shares
smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/share to get a login prompt for that username/password

Several ways to administer Samba also:
- KDE Control Center, Internet & Network, Samba - expand the window to see 
all of it and login as root to rummage around.
- Enable swat via YaST, Network Services, Network Service (xinetd) and then 
surf to http://localhost:901 and login as root.


Have a Merry Christmas everyone! Even though Santa may be challenged getting 
the boxed set of openSUSE 10.2 down your chimney this year!
