For accessing Amahi shared folders/files on a Mac OS X computer, you use the Finder. Select the Go menu, then:
- Connect to Server (Apple-K shortcut).
- Enter the Server Address: smb://<user>@hda/Movies with your samba username instead of <user>
- Press the "+" sign beside the Server Address line, so the connection is saved as a favorite.
- Click Connect.
- Complete the SMB/CIFS File System Authentication form:
- Domain: HDA
- Name: <your HDA username>
- Password: <your HDA user password>
- You may want to check the Remember this password in my keychain so you can auto-connect in the future.
- Enjoy, the mounted drive should appear now in the Finder and be available at /Volumes/Movies on your local system.
You can connect to all the HDA shares, like //hda/Docs or //hda/Music, or as many as you have shares.
If your Mac OS X user matches the Samba user, you can eliminate <user>@ above
To set your system to auto-connect at login or startup, see this great intro article.
