A list of all presently shared directories will be displayed. Make sure
the one you want is listed.

Making sure that the share exists, try this command substituting your
own values. IE, replace "laptop" & "user" & "ShareName" with your data.
Make sure the mount point does physically exist before running the
command.

 mount_smbfs -I laptop -U user //user at laptop/ShareName /mnt
