$ smbclient -L zzz [-U xxx]
# mkdir /mnt/smb
# mount -t smbfs [-o username=xxx,password=yyy] "//zzz/sss" /mnt/smb'
where:
zzz = the computer name
sss = the share name of the folder, which will be listed in the first
command if all goes well
xxx = username
yyy = that username's password on the computer
If you don't have a username/password, leave out everything in brackets.
Either way, don't actually type the brackets.
You may also need to do stuff to /etc/samba/smb.conf, I don't remember.
Hope that works/helps.

smb.conf has the enviroment paramenters for the samba server (smbd and
nmbd), you shouldnt need to modify it to use the samba client, either using
mount or one of the desktops browsers.
