Network Drives

I'm afraid that wasn't enough information. However, if by mapping network drives, you mean mounting a Windows-based share on another machine, yes you can. The command is smbmount.

Another nifty way to browse Windows-based networks from your Linux box is using LinNeighborhood. It makes a surprisingly similar interface as the Windows Network Neighborhood.

Other than that, I'm afraid you don't have enough information to really specify.

P.S. More info, please, clients, servers, type of map you mean, etc.

In order to map a network drive you need to know the following: let's say that comp is the computer name that owns the drive, x is the drive letter (as it is shared) and /mnt/x is a folder on your linux box. If you want to access the drive you need to type: smbmount //comp/x /mnt/x When it prompts for the password, you should just press enter if there is no sharing password. That will work only if your samba service is properly configured, of course. Good Luck!
