Difference: FileStorage (4 vs. 5)

mount -t cifs SERVER_NAME LOCAL_MOUNT_DIRECTORY -o user=USER_NAME

So, for example, if your name is Napoleon Solo and you have a guphysics account and you wished to mount the detdev01 directory in the //ppesmb Samba file system to the local /mnt directory, you would use:

mount -t cifs //ppesmb/data/detdev01 /mnt -o user=guphysics/nsolo

Napoleon would then be prompted for his password before mounting took place. The password can also be passed as an additional comma-seperated argument ("pass") or inside a file, along with the user name ("credentials").

N.B. The user name must include the guphysics domain. Make sure the mount directory exists.
