[Linux] Mounting a Windows shared folder on Ubuntu


Let me explain how tomanually mount a Windows shared folder on Ubuntu

First, you need to make a shared folder on Windows.

2nd, type at the command prompt on Ubuntu

$ sudo mount -t cifs //WindowsName/SharedFolder/mnt/SharedFolder -o 
username=XXX,domain=WIN,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode

* If you didn't install Samba Server on Ubuntu, you should install like this.

$ sudo apt-get install samba smbfs

That's all. :-)
