The Samba suite of applications are not just for server use, they can also enable a Linux workstation the ability to mount a shared Windows resource as part of its own filesystem. The smbclient application requires the use of a valid username and password that has been configured on the Microsoft server/workstation that it will be connecting too, unless the guest account has been enabled on the target system.
To obtain a complete list of all the workstations available on the local network, type the "findsmb" command at the prompt.
The smbclient can be used to obtain a detailed list of shared resources from a specified host on the local network. In this example we are asking for a list of resources from the Samba server called "galaxy". Because the server is not configured with an active guest account, we need to pass a valid username (-U) in the process, in this case alice.
The following example is similar to above, however we are obtaining a list from the Microsoft client called "winbox1" which is a Windows XP desktop. A valid username (-U) is also used in the remote request.
