Hello, I'm trying to create a drive in wine configuration to map a windows network share. The computer IP address in the network is 192.168.2.3 and the shared folder within such computer is "Users". How I'll be able to create it. I had tried all kinds of instructions and commands in Terminal and nothing had worked so far. I pretty novice in Ubuntu, so maybe it's easy, but so far I had failed in everything.

This has nothing to do with Wine: its all done with the Samba package in
Linux. IMO the definitive source of information is the O'Reilly book
about Samba.

After creating the share, use winecfg to map the shared folder as a
drive. Hope it helps.
