====== Mount samba share on Ubuntu in CLI (Terminal) ======
There are two moments when you can mount a Windows share: Before you log in, and after you log in. Here are both examples:

Server name: fs
Share name: install
User: usr1
Password: pwd1
Local mountpoint: mnt
Local user: ubuntuuser1

If you are a sudoer (or root), do the followinr
<code>
sudo smbmount //fs/install /mnt -o user=usr1 -p password:pwd1
</code>
Note that you need to be a sudoer.

If you want the share to be mounted for all users before anyone logs in, do the following:

Edit the /etc/fstab and add the line:
<code>
//fs/install  /mnt  cifs  guest,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8  0  0
</code>
<code>
//fs/install  /mnt  cifs  username=usr1,password=pwd1,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm  0  0
</code>
It would be wise to store the credentials elsewhere, since the 'fstab' file is readable by everyone.

Create ~/.smbcredentials
<code>
username=usr1
password=pwd1
</code>
<code>
//fs/install /mnt cifs credentials=/home/ubuntuuser1/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm 0 0
</code>
For special permissions (like chmod), you will need to provice a  uid or gid parameter to the share's options
<code>
//fs/install  /mnt  cifs   uid=ubuntuuser1,credentials=/home/ubuntuuser1/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,sec=ntlm   0       0
</code>
