The samba package allows you to access a windows computer on the network. For example, if the windows server (192.168.10.3) has a share named "my-share", then you can mount it with these commands:
# mkdir /mnt/win # mount -t smbfs -o lfs //192.168.10.3/my-share/ /mnt/win/ # cd /mnt/win # umount /mnt/win
Samba is supported in the kernel, and samba tools are provided (smbcacls, smbcontrol,smbfilter,
smbmount, smbspool, smbtar, smbclient, smbd, smbmnt, smbpasswd, smbstatus, smbumount). It's
important not to forget option "lfs" (Large File Support), because it allows to handle files
that are larger than 2 GB. Big file are often used when making a backup or an image file. Without
this option, the copy would fail, with an error. Large files are supported since version 0.2.12
(linux kernel 2.4.25).
