I can only imagine this is an FAQ, but it is not in wiki, wiki's faq or general samba documentation (the paragraph I read anyway!).

I am looking for a way to make it easy for users to connect to their WWW storage SMB shares. I can create a "smb://u...@host/share" style URI in a WWW page or email for OsX and Linux users. It will ask for password, and just work.

But with Windows, I can not get smb:// to work. Is there a good way to include the username, hostname and share name for Windows users so it will just ask for their password, then open their shared area? Even if I have to create a .BAT file I guess.

\\host\share and file://host/share don't seem to work, and has nowhere for the username part to be included.

There is no Windows Login going on.
