in windows for accessing shared folders: i will open run window and i wll type the ip adress of the machine to access his shared folders. or i will use netscan software.

hi
you can mount the shared directory using

#mount ip:<ful path dir to be mounted> <path where to mount>

for this purpose you have to configure samba.

first how would i know the "full path dir to be mounted". as this is the folder created by some one in the LAN.

You should have the full UNC path to the share you are mounting. Are you mounting the share without someone's knowledge?

suppose the person with ip address 10.0.2.5 shared a folder with name movie.

how can i mount that folder on to my desktop( my ip is 10.0.3.2).

mention the full path names with these information.
