[NTLUG:Discuss] Accessing samba dir

Since I rarely have to access windows shares, I am lazy about finding out
how it works. To get around my laziness, I use xsmbrowser. I just copy the
files I want without mounting the shares, all done as a normal user. If you
want to learn the commands, run it from a console, and you can see the
different commands it uses.

Hope that is useful :)
