staying on the same samba server, can you log on?

smbclient -L $SERVER_NAME -U $USER_NAME

enter your password

note that you should be able to access this anonymously (without a
user/password)

smbclient -L $SERVER_NAME

first try anonymously, then try with your samba username (which must
match Linux username or be mapped)
