smbmount not working on Ubuntu 12.10

13,589

Run this :-

sudo apt-get install smbfs

In future if you have a command that you don't find, you can run

apt-file search smbmount
smbfs: usr/bin/smbmount

to search for the file that you need. Of course to install apt-file, you need

sudo apt-get install apt-file
apt-file update

    I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 and I was trying to mount a folder to the Ubuntu system. So I used:

    sudo smbmount <folder> /path/to/my/folder -ouser=<my id>, dom=<my dom>
    

    but the smbmount was not found... All I have now is cifs-utils.

    The command above works in Ubuntu 12.04, but not 12.10.

    Any hints?

    Thx in advance :)
