mounting a smb filesystem

[Gaurang Pandya]

 You can mount a SMB filesystem by using mount command it self in samba 2.2.2.
Here is the way I mount the smb filesystem in my linux box running samba 2.2.2
mount -t smbfs -o username=gaurangp password=<passwd> //fileserver/share /mntpoint
if you miss pasword field from that you will be prompted for that which i think is good idea.

through the documentation, I broke down and am going
to ask you guys. In all the previous versions of
samba that I used, I could mount a smb filesystem with
smbmount. For the way I am using samba, I need this
functionality, or at least something very similar (ie
- not the ftp like smbclient). When I got the latest
version, however, there is no longer a smbmount
program included, and I cant seem to find a way to do
anything similar. I am sure that I am missing
something obvious, but it would save me alot more time
searching if someone could just point out what it is.
