samba seems ok as it is, but maybe i'd be interested in trying the smbmount command. However, it's not there.
and i'd have thought i'd be able to install samba with yum and/or apt-get but no luck with either.
knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ smbmount
bash: smbmount: command not found
knoppix@Microknoppix:~$
knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ sudo yum install samba
