//winserver/winshare /linuxdir smbfs username=username,password=password, this line doesn't work for me in fstab in CentOS 5 to mount a Windows share, it works in other versions of RH. Any Ideas? Will using Windows NFS server/client (some reading required) work better than Samba?

smbfs has been depreciated. Use cifs instead. It works just fine.

One word of caution. If you experience system crashes, be sure to read this bug report. The fix is available.

I just did some testing over the weekend ... and the Desktop does work very well with windows shares via cifs.
Just remember to use dos2unix and unix2dos for text files.

On C4, I've been using vim to edit a script to create/edit a Windows Remote Install text file.
Seems to work well, without those conversion programs. I expected vim to be okay (it recognises both line-endings), but this works too:
cat <<. Windows text file .
