Sometime in August Ritchie, Lauren assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| hello,
| 
| Ok i have another question, i have samba 3.0.4 installed on my RedHat 9.0
| pc, and now i am to put smbclient on it. The reason for this smbclient is:
| 1) so the linux pcs can access the companys shared drives, which has
| databases, files, etc.they would need to look at and

I would recommend checking out the smb howto, specifically:

http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/SMB-HOWTO-8.html

the following seems to work well for me:

mount -t smbfs -o username=youruser,password=yourpass //server/share /mnt/tmp/

| 2) to add printers to the linux machines, so printing can be possible from
| the linux pcs

If the printers are available on the network, it might be easier to get
cups or something setup for printing.
