I'm running Tiger.
I know I can go to finder, click network, find the computer, click connect, wait, select the share, and click OK.
Is there any way I can compress those into a single action? Terminal commands OK, but I'd like it to produce the same result — i.e. the share appears in finder, I can unmount it by clicking the eject icon, etc.

Two methods are quick and simple.
mount via commandline in Terminal.app:
sudo mount -t smbfs //username@windows.home.example.com/Shared /Volumes/Shared
The /Volumes/Shared directory needs to exist. Change to fit your network.
Also, the "clock" button next to the plus will show recently connected fileshares.
