Display all Windows shares!

Hi

If I tried to mount windows shares via samba I have to specify the folder name!
Can I display all windows share without specify the folder name?

Regards

Re: Display all Windows shares!

I used to edit smb.conf and add the folder in there, and it would never ask me again for the name. Is that what you mean?

I'd typically do the following:
Code:
smbclient -L <windows server>

You can list all the shares available from the command line. Use:
Code:
smbtree
