People I know the answer now!!!!


It was stupid of me of course!!!
In de windowsXP(Professional)-PC I am sharing a whole disk!!
I only want to mount(on linux) the map named Pictures(from the
WIndowsXP-PC).
This disk has the label name "Over(G):\" in windowsXP
so the path to the map I want, is seen from the network as
Over\Pictures
So the real answer was always there:

mount -t smbfs //192.168.99.100/Over/Pictures /mnt/share/

It then asked me for a password and I gave an enter (no password).
And it mounted!!

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!

I really appreciated all your effort
for trying to help me!!

This is what the world is all about!!


THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
