I know that i must edit /etc/fstab , and use the smbfs utility as told on the FAQ . But i could not run smbfs command , and other commands like smbutil , ask a lot of arguments and so , i cant find my way through this. Can you give me some basic information on how to do this (i know that RTFM is the way , but i really can't get the idea of this,i just know i must mount the network drive like a normal harddisk device , and put it on a folder ) Thank you
