smbmount not working on Ubuntu 12.10

Question

I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 and I was trying to mount a folder to the Ubuntu system. So I used: ``` sudo smbmount /path/to/my/folder -ouser=, dom= ``` but the smbmount was not found... All I have now is cifs-utils. The command above works in Ubuntu 12.04, but not 12.10. Any hints? Thx in advance :)

Accepted Answer

Run this :-

```
sudo apt-get install smbfs
```

In future if you have a command that you don't find, you can run

```
apt-file search smbmount
smbfs: usr/bin/smbmount
```

to search for the file that you need. Of course to install apt-file, you need

```
sudo apt-get install apt-file
apt-file update
```
