This is what I expect will be an elementary exercise for most of you but
keep in mind I'm starting to dig into the CLI this is new to me...

I have a pair of machines (networked) in my LAN, one running Ubuntu 9.10
(w/Samba) and sharing with a M$ XP box with the following shares:

D$
Production

The name of the M$ box is \\Studio and the name of the partition
administratively shared as "d$" is "Storage".  

I have created a folder in Linux at "\media\D" to act as a mount point
for the Storage drive "d$" share in XP AND I can browse to and from each
machine successfully.  My only problem is that I don't have the proper
syntax to mount d$ to /media/D in Ubuntu.  Samba is installed and
running fine...I can query and "see" \\Studio\d$ and/or \\Studio
\Production without issue..

Any learned *NIX insight to aid this noob convert from M$?
