    One small hint in case if you have no password protection for a share and want to avoid the annoying pasword samba prompt the way to do it is like so:  
    smbclient -U% //192.168.1.2/My_Folder

    Once connected you can use Linux commands to list and travel between files.

    File transfer with smbclient is also possible by  using get, put, mget, and mput commands.

    ♦ Something else I forgot to mention in article, If it happens that some samba pass credential has been lost it is useful to change samba user password with command:

     smbpasswd smbusername

    ♦ To create a samba entry for an existing system user, use the pdbedit command:

    if it is needded to add a complete new unexisting user to the samba users do:

     smbserver:~# pdbedit -a NewSmbUserName

    By default samba server password database (if not changed to another location in smb.conf is stored on server) under:

    /var/lib/samba/private/passdb.tdb

    ♦ Also, If you need to join a Linux Samba Server to a Windows Domain from the Windows domain using the net command run:

    $ net join -w WINDOWS-DOMAIN -s ' win-server' -U Administrator%password

    ♦ You can then list the users in the Windows domain using wbinfo command

    $ wbinfo -u
