if you can give a proper name for the c drive administrative share, or best if you create a new share for the c drive then you can simply achieve the same with
=ygoutham_ pass,uid=y goutham,gi d=ygoutham //192.168.0.9/C_Drive /mnt/smb/some_dir_name
mount -t smbfs -o username=ygoutham,password
please note that there are no spaces after you give a "-o" option all the rest has to be typed without any white space in between till you need to specify the server ip\sharename and the mount point
