How do you mount an SMB share in terminal?

I just did a quick search, and couldn't find an example. Anyone have an idea? I've done it in a apple script before but not in terminal. :rolleyes:

Did you take a look at the man page for smbclient ?

lol yes i did... but it doesn’t provide an example... sure it lists all the variables commands that are allowed, but i'm not too unix savvy..... i just tried smbclient but i connected to the share within the terminal, i need it to mount on the desktop. :(

Then you want to use mount_smbfs... It pretty much uses the same terms than the ones in your Mount Volume in AS... //workgroup;username:password@the.server.ip.address/SharePath

This one does give examples in the man and is much clearer.
