    Please try following things and see if they work:

    mount –t cifs //<windows_machine_name>/<shared_directory> /mnt/<some_dirctory_on_linux_machine> -o username=<domain_name>/<user_name>
    Then hit Enter and it should ask for the password

    The smbfs alternative

    mount –t smbfs //<windows_machine_name>/<shared_directory> /mnt/<some_dirctory_on_linux_machine> -o username=<user_name>/=<domain_name>
    Then hit Enter and it should ask for the password

    If any of above commands doesn’t work with <windows_machine_name> then you can try with ip address.

    If your Windows and Linux setup is on the same machine,

    mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt/win OR mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/win

    If sda doesn’t work, try changing it to hda.
