apt-get install smbclient and, no, not necessarily. There are two components: 1)Samba, the server, which makes your Linux box look like a Windows server, and 2)smbclient, the client, which allows your Linux box to connect to Windows (or Samba) servers. If you want to give Win95/98/NT/2K boxes the ability to map drives to your Linux box, you need to install the server on your Linux box. If you want your Linux box to be able to mount shares that are shared from Win95/98/NT/2K boxes, you need to install the client on your Linux box. You can install either or both or neither, depending on your needs.
