Are you trying to do this from Windows or CentOS. Windows will easily
AutoMount the Shares. CentOS is a lil Different. From (fstab or
automount)??? see wiki.centos.org for CentOS. For CentOS you may need to
change the globle perms in the Samba conf file.

Windows it is Right Click | Add a Network Drive, on the Network Icon.
