Listing samba / cifs shares on a host
smbclient --list=192.168.167.8
newer mount command (smbfs depricated)
mount -t cifs //server/E$ /mnt/test -o username=gagazote/mydomain,password=hackth1s
required package for cifs file type on debian: cifs-utils
sudo apt-get install cifs-utils
This might require the mount-cifs package
old mount command
mount -t smbfs //servername/sharename /mountdirectory -o username=mywindowsusername,password=mywindowspassword
samba users
/etc/samba/smb.conf Uncomment the security line *** this will require a local user account for each smbuser ***
security = user username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
make local user account, no hoee dir or local passwd needs to be set
useradd smbuser
add user to /etc/samba/smbusers
<localusername> = “<samba username>”.
example
smbuser = smbuser
