Today I try to use my Ubnutu 8.04 system to map our dataserver and input following command.

# mount -t smbfs //192.168.100.1/wugi /mnt/wugi -o iocharset=utf8,username=wugi
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.168.100.1/wugi,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
(for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might
need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program)
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail  or so

However, I always get above error messages. What's wrong?

The command to mount smbfs is smbmount, but I can't find it in my system. It seems the sbmfs package is not installed in first Ubuntu installation.

Thus, I install smbfs package by synaptic package manager and remount again.

# mount -t smbfs //192.168.100.1/wugi /mnt/wugi/ -o iocharset=utf8,username=wugi

The share folder can be mounted sucessfully and all filenames are shown in UTF8.

This post is just a record. :D
