Samba Share

[Paul Thompson]

This will likely do it for you, Just subsistut your file names:

Mount for a session:-
Creat a mount point: sudo mkdir /media/YourMountPiontName
Make smb mount writeable by local users: sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbumount
Mount: sudo smbmount //svr001/SMBShareName /media/YourMountPiontName
-o username=YourUserName,password=YourPassword
or
sudo mount -t smbfs //svr001/SMBShareName /media/YourMountPiontName -o
username=YourUserName,passwordd=YourPassword,uid=YourSmbaID,gid=YourSambaGroup

To Create a Permanant Mount:-
Creat a hidden password file in your home directory called .smbpasswd:

echo username=YourUserName > .smbpasswd
echo password=YourPassword >> .smbpasswd
chmod 600 .smbpasswd

Edit fstab & add the mount instruction:
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
Add this to the bottom:

# Mount Samba shares
//svr001/SMBShareName /media/YourMountPiontName smbfs
credentials=/home/YourHomeDir/.smbpasswd,uid=pjt,gid=pjt 0 0
