I'm not sure, but try installing 'samba' (without quotes).

$ su -c 'yum install samba'

Did you, as root, edit /etc/samba/smb.conf?

It's well-commented, and much can be left as defaults - probably best to, unless you know what you are doing - but you must rename the workgroup to match the windows one.

I am rather amazed, I am not seeing the new 'documented' way of doing this (I learned the hard way to command line it)

For a full mount:
mount -t cifs //yourwindows/share /mnt/windows_share
--or--
mount -t cifs //yourwindows/share /mnt/windows_share -ouser=joeuser


both work on mounting on most systems (I use that command to mount my media files for playback on my PS3 so I can watch movies from my network on my TV) and it works well...

Not as quick as a GUI option, but it works.

For mounting a linux share in Windows, that is where you would really use the Samba Server, and get the joy of configuring shares in smb.conf. All depends on what direction you want to go. Looking at the list replies it looks like they are talking of mounting a share in Windows...
