I work in an organization that runs a Windows network of 1000s of computers with Windows 7 installed. We have lots of SMB share drives that store information. My job is a new role for a graphic design area and I've been setup with an iMac.
Now the problem: This is the only iMac in the organization and I'm not familiar with share drives. I've been told that I've had my "credentials" set up and should be able to connect to an SMB share drive that contains all our fonts, images, and videos.
How do I connect my iMac to this Windows SMB share drive?

Note: - If you’re not already connected to the network, or you require different credentials for this share drive, then after Step 5 you may be prompted to enter your username and password.
[EDIT]
If you do have to enter your username and password, it's likely you will need to enter the username in the form of "DOMAIN\username" where "DOMAIN" is the name of your Active Directory domain. If you're unsure of this, your IT helpdesk should be able to tell you.
