At this point, the Samba share users should be able to attach to server from a Windows client or other CIFS/SMB client. The procedure in this section explains the steps for a Windows XP client. Use a similar method on other Windows operating systems.
On a Windows 7 computer, open Windows Explorer, then right-click Computer or Network.
Select Map network drive from the shortcut menu.
Specify the Drive letter for the connection.
In the Folder field, specify the location as \\servername\Samba_sharename, for example, \\svr1\usertest.
Connecting to the server can take a few seconds to minutes, depending on network speed, discovery of server and share, and so on.
Select the Reconnect at logon and Connect using different credentials appropriately, then click Finish.
When prompted, enter your user name (DN only, not FDN) and password.
If the connection is good, an Explorer window opens for the mapped location.
Ensure that the rights are working by creating a new folder.
