Browsing Samba shares on local network in console?

Mikos

Hello,
is there some way how can I browse all Samba shares on local network like in "Network Neighborhood" in Windows? Yes, I know I can do it in KDE (in Konqueror) or GNOME (in Nautilus). And I know there is LinNeighborhood and xfsamba. But is there some console based application? I want be able to browse local network for Samba shares even without started X server (for example through SSH connection).

No, it can browse shares on a single computer, not network, AFAIK. Never missed browsing network Windows-style anyway. Slow, buggy and useless most of the time.

But someone want to know who on the network is sharing something...
There are many GUI programs which can do that, but no console program? I can't believe it :-(

I am new to this myself but... have you looked at the nmblookup program (comes with samba ebuild)? Sounds like what you were talking about... try the -S flag
