I don't think you *need* smbclient, smbmount ought to be sufficient (and comes in the smbfs package), but it's probably a good idea to install samba at least for testing. smb-nat may also be useful; while it claims to be a tool for checking out security, in fact what it does is find out all it can about things, some of which is very useful info that'll come in handy. You need to have the the smbfs filesystem in the kernel (module or compiled-in). You can check that by looking at /proc/filesystems When everything is ready, you issue the smbmount command. Remember that its options go at the *end*, not the beginning like in everything else. You may find that directory listings are incomplete. I haven't solved the problem yet, but I'm told that recompiling the linux kernel with the W95 bug workaround enabled will do the trick, or else I'll need to get service packs from MS.
