I have another linux question.

How do i see my 2k shares? Also, is it possible to mount those shares? It may be important to know that all my NT disks are partitioned in NTFS and i've read that linux doesn't do NTFS read/write too well.

Filesystem is irrelevant when accessing them across the network, the host doing the sharing does all the low-level stuff.

smbclient gives a ftp-client-like interface and is good for other troubleshooting.
smbmount actually mounts a smb share to the local filesystem.

Nothinman is right. Filesystems don't matter. Look for some information on SAMBA. That should get your foot in the door.
