you need smbmount - there are a number of graphical clients like LinNeighborhood (guess what that mimics). I connect to my NT4 shares fine using this. Don't forget that to access shares you need password/username pairs known by NT etc, and probably encrypted passwords unless you want to hack every Win pc's registry.

I too have had problems with that. I have been able to get my Windows machines to see and work with my box but I can not get my linux box to do it the other way around. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.

I've got a bit of a problemette at the moment. Our network is an

of Windows 9x, Windows NT (Workstation and Server), SuSE Linux and MacOS machines. The Windows machines are all on a TCP/IP ethernet, with the MacOS machines on their own little AppleTalk network. The Linux machines are NFS/NIS sharing to each other. I'd like to integrate all of the different networks into one, so that all of the resources are sharable.
I've begin to do this by moving over to TCP/IP. I've been trying to use Samba, and have successfully managed to get Windows to connect to a Linux machine. The other way around, however, is a big no-no. I can't, and I've tried many times, to get Linux to access a Windows share. I have yet to try it with MacOS, but expect the same, if not more, problems.
Any suggestions as to how I can get the Linux boxes to see Windows? I need all of the machines, and can't move them all to Linux (much to my despair). Any help would be appreciated!
