Hi, new to knoppix and love it, here is my question:

I have a windows 2000 machine with a shared folder... (\\server\shared)...how do I mount this automatically at startup from a script file on a floppy? The shared folder in NTFS and i've created a knoppix account w/ read and write permissions to it.... it'd be great if someone can tell me where to start. thanks!

Something like :

mkdir /mnt/shared
mount -t smbfs //server/shared /mnt/shared -p <password>

"man mount" is your friend
