You should be able to put the relevant mounts in the file /etc/fstab.
If you're having problems figuring it out do a google search for "smbfs
fstab".

: Sorry to trouble everyone,
: 
:  Thanks to all of your help I have got a wonderful MythTV setup
: working which my wife and I absolutely adore. Just a few more little
: bugs to sort out and everything will be perfect. I have been putting
: it off, so I have decided to post these two messages in an attempt to
: seek out the answers to the last few remaining bugs.
: 
: (1) XBOX Frontend (Xebian) but actually a debian question
: 
: I am mounting a Samba share of my "other videos" from my Windows box.
: Unfortunately my share name has a space in it which is preventing me
: from getting it to work in fstab (unless someone has an idea there.) I
: can get it working fine from a manual SMBMOUNT.
: 
: My question is, where can I put this SMBMOUNT so that it is run
: automatically on reboot? I don't know enough about Linux to find an
: autoexec.bat, and I am worried that even if I put it somewhere that it
: will get run before the Samba Daemon is loaded. I have tried putting
: it in the fluxbox.sh script I found in the mythtv directory, but no
: such luck (that and it didn't look much like a batch file.)
: 
: Any ideas on how to get this smbmount to run on reboot? Where should it go?
: 
: I should also let you know what I am running. Fedora Core 4 Backend
: with a Haupauge 500 and an XBOX Frontend.
: 
: Thank you again and I hope someone out there can help!
: 
: sincerely,
: David Bennett
