You can mount a shared resource from a SMB file server via mount_smbfs(8).= =20 [http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dmount_smbfs&apropos=3D0&sektion= =3D0&manpath=3DFreeBSD+5.2-RELEASE+and+Ports&format=3Dhtml] > I can find a virtual cornucopia of information on networking Windows > machines; Microsoft even includes a wizard to accomplish it.
