How can I mount a Windows partition on my Linux box using Samba?

Type in smbmount and it will give you a simple 'mount' command example
showing how to do this.

Something like:

mount -t smbfs -o guest "//WIN_MACHINE_NAME/Comp CD" /mnt/test

(or something like that)

This will mount the windows machine WIN_MACHINE_NAME area Comp CD in
/mnt/test on your linux box.
