Is there a way to mount a Windows Share into a Linux folder?

I’m using OpenSuSE 11.1.

a thought goto terminal and type : touch <path name folder to mount at> then use mount command to mount your windows folder there

or

goto Yast->partitioning and select where you want the windows drive mounted

if your asking to only share specific windows directories under linux then samba + shares comes to mind.

I guess when one talks about “Windows shares” that this is about SAMBA. There is good information about SAMBA in openSUSE SuSE Linux HOWTOs and Tutorials by Swerdna.

This one comes from a real office network, where a partition of a Win2000 server is mounted on an openSUSE server:


//192.168.1.4/Shares       /Share     cifs    iocharset=iso8859-15, uid=1000, gid=100, rw, workgroup=WORKGROUPX, file_mode=0664, dir_mode=0775, user=USERX, password=PASSWORDX 0 0
