A lot depends on what you are trying to do on the NT side of things.
For purposes of moving files back and forth I connect from my debian box to
my Win2K box using the SMB client, "smbclient". The command I use is
smbclient //win2k/d\$ -U username
It will connect you to the machine and ask you for your NT password. In the
above example I am connecting directly to the Win2K D: drive. If there is a
specific share, then use that share name. the "-U username" let's you put
in a valid NT account name on the computer you are connecting to.

Subject: Use Linuxdesktop to login to an NT server.
HI all,
I am not sure if this is the best place to ask this, but please guide me to
the
right location.
How would I go about, using Linux on my workstation, to login to an NT
server on
my company LAN?
I know SAMBA, pam_smb, and possibly NIS is involved in some way, but I don't
know much more.
Ideally, I would like to do the same as on my windows partition: login to an
NT
domain (as in Microsoft Network Services), and then get the login scripts to
map
my server directories to local drive assignments (or in LInux case, mounted
somewhere on my home directory).
Could someone help? Thanks in advance.
Regards
Carl.
