[Voyage-linux] Samba on Voyage Linux

[Punky Tse]

Joe,

I would like to know what command you mount you mount your drive, and 
the fstab entry.  Moreover, kernel support smbfs and cifs modules.  They 
sound different things, but they are used to mount window shares.  I 
need to know which module you used and if they cause the problem.  In 
addition, the server information about the window share is also 
important.  Are they smbd on linux, windows 2003 or XP?
