mount a samba fileshare in linux

how to mount a linux samba fileshare back into another linux box

edit /etc/fstab, add the line:

//host/shared/ /home/shar/ cifs username=u,password=p,_netdev,uid=root,gid=users 0 0

replace host with [host]
/shared/ with the folder shared
/home/shar/ with where you want to mount it
u with the samba username
p with the samba password

(when complete, 'mount -a' should apply the fstab changes).
