Do you mean NFS share to another unix server? You can browse /etc/exports to see what you are sharing. A mount statement on the client would be something like:-
Do you mean a Samba share to mount with a Windows client?
If you fire up a browser like this, then you may get a management GUI where you can explore:-
You will need to put in the root password.
CAUTION - you will be able to edit the configuration very easily, so mistakes are easy.
The configuration file is likely to be similar to /opt/freeware/samba/version/etc/smb.conf
Find it and copy it away securely before you start. .
Not sure what else you might mean.
Do any of these help? If it's the 3rd option, can you explain a little more of what you are trying to achieve please.

Using sh/csh, unfortunately shell scripts are not my strong suit.
Trying to write a script that gets called from a program for pre-processing.
The program passes individual components of a UNC (//server/path1/path2/filename).

Hi Folks -
I need to mount a Windows Share to a Linux server. What is the best/easiest way to do this?
Is this 'how-to' guide accurate:

mount.nfs
MOUNT.NFS(8) System Manager's Manual MOUNT.NFS(8)NAME
mount.nfs, mount.nfs4 - mount a Network File System
SYNOPSIS
mount.nfs remotetarget dir [-rvVwfnsh ] [-o options]
DESCRIPTION
mount.nfs is a part of nfs(5) utilities package, which provides NFS client functionality.
mount.nfs is meant to be used by the mount(8) command for mounting NFS shares. This subcommand, however, can also be used as a standalone
command with limited functionality.
remotetarget is a server share usually in the form of servername:/path/to/share. dir is the directory on which the file system is to be
mounted.
Under Linux 2.6.32 and later kernel versions, mount.nfs can mount all NFS file system versions. Under earlier Linux kernel versions,
mount.nfs4 must be used for mounting NFSv4 file systems while mount.nfs must be used for NFSv3 and v2.
OPTIONS -r Mount file system readonly.
-v Be verbose.
-V Print version.
-w Mount file system read-write.
-f Fake mount. Don't actually call the mount system call.
-n Do not update /etc/mtab. By default, an entry is created in /etc/mtab for every mounted file system. Use this option to skip making
an entry.
-s Tolerate sloppy mount options rather than fail.
-h Print help message.
nfsoptions
Refer to nfs(5) or mount(8) manual pages.
NOTE
For further information please refer nfs(5) and mount(8) manual pages.
