Install cifs-utils and samba-client
sudo apt install cifs-utils samba-client -y
Create a mount point
sudo mkdir /MOUNTPOINT
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD //SERVERNAME/SHARENAME /MOUNTPOINT
Permissions
Changing that mount command to
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0666 //SERVERNAME/SHARENAME /MOUNTPOINT
allows actual access for ANYONE...
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=USER,password=PASSWORD,uid=1000,gid=1000 //SERVERNAME/SHARENAME /MOUNTPOINT
Allows full access by the user with UID 1000 & GID 1000...
(Gotta be a better way...)
Persistent mounting
sudo vi /etc/fstab
Add a line:
//SERVERNAME/SHARENAME /MOUNTPOINT cifs user,username=USER,password=PASSWORD,_netdev 0 0
Check it out
ls /MOUNTPOINT
Usage Notes
sudo smbclient -L HOSTNAME
