I've been setting up a dev machine over the last week and I want to be able to network the drive on my host Windows Server machine, using hyper v, to my guest Ubuntu Server machine.
Server address is \\SRV
File share is \\SRV\public_html
and is accessed on my guest Windows XP machine for shared verification.
Any links or suggestions would be awesome on how to do this from the terminal.
Update:
I used this to install samba http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/install-samba-server-on-ubuntu/
and, I created the cedentials file manually using sudo touch credentials
as suggested by answer below
