Well now , in order for things to work the other way arrount , you just
have to use the

mount -t smbfs -o username=Mark  //Computername/Sharename  /mountpoint.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                                   I still forget if 
the slashes above are
forward or reverse .
And that's all of it .Transfering files between the two systems is 
pretty fast .
