mount Windows share on Centos 6 or Redhat RHEL
Share one folder name Software on Windows (192.168.0.100) with username test
2. On Centos , mount that share folder to mnt folder on Server
[root@localhost ~]# mount -t cifs -o username=test,password=Passw0rd //192.168. 0.100/Software /mnt
3. Now we can use that folder as our local disk
[root@localhost ~]# df -h

4. If you want to keep the mount when server reboots, we have to add to fstab file
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/fstab
