Windows Share Folder Problem

Mon May 11 11:17:00 GMT 2009

Hi Andy,
Thanks a lot for your help.
I have successfully accessed the sharable PC using command "cd
//server_ip_address"
But to access the shared folder it is saying permission denied.
Actually, that shared folder folder have user id and password.
How Can I give user id and password using cd command to access that
window sharable folder ?
