Connect to a Samba share from OS X
Here on Ghacks I've worked to cover Samba from numerous angles (check out the Samba Topic on Ghacks). I want to build on that topic by helping you to connect to a Samba share from within the OS X operating system. And just in case your Samba install is not set up, or just not quite right, I will offer up an easy to use smb.conf file that should help you get things rolling.
For this installation I will using Samba on a Debian server. Nothing really special, but it is on a fairly secure internal network (So I won't really touch on security in this article). With that said, let's begin.
