$ mount -t smbfs //user@your.samba.server/sharedirectory /Volumes/local_mount_dir |
* You can replace /Volumes/local_mount_dir to your choice. (ex: /Volumes/sambashare)
Once you mount the samba network drive, you can start accessing your samba drive files thru /Volumes/local_mount_dir.
In case you want to unmount the samba network drive, you can use the command below:-

$ umount /Volumes/local_mount_dir |
Happy mounting.
