I use this to mount windows shares
mount -t smbfs -o username=chris,password=youwish
//windowsmachinename/sharename /windowsdesktop
You could also substitute //windowsmachinename with its IP address. Then
the only thing you would need to do is create a directory on your slack box
called windowsdesktop
I created a startup script that runs at bootup that mounts the windows
share.
I think if you type the word smbmount at the prompt you will get some info
about the command above.
Chris.
