Unix
Firstly you'll need to make a .smbcredentials file in the format:
username=<username> password=**********
Change the permissions:
chmod 600 .smbcredentials
Now you can mount it from the command line:
sudo mount -t cifs -o vers=1.0,credentials=/home/jw279/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000 --verbose //marvin.st-andrews.ac.uk/jw279 /home/jw279/Marvin/
changing /home/jw279/.smbcredentials to the path of your .smbcredentials file, replacing jw279 in //marvin.st-andrews.ac.uk/jw279 with your username and /home/jw279/Marvin to the desired mount location.
Alternatively, add a line to /etc/fstab
//marvin.st-andrews.ac.uk/jw279 /home/jw279/Marvin cifs vers=1.0,credentials=/home/jw279/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0
replacing jw279 in //marvin.st-andrews.ac.uk/jw279 with your username and /home/jw279/Marvin to the desired mount location.
