Mounting a directory on a network box

[ShinSeiki]

Ok, I have a directory that has lots of mp3s on it on one of the boxes connected to my router. The IP address for that box is 192.168.0.6 (private ip).

I want to be able to access these mp3 files from any of the other computers connected to this router (192.168.0.2/3/4/... etc). I didn't set up the mp3 directory with 'smbfs' or whatever, and I really have no clue how to mount a network directory.

Does anyone know what I should be doing here? I'm guessing I need to edit mtab and fstab so that I can mount this directory, but I really don't know what values I should be adding.

Thanks a million!

If you need any information, just holler.

You need samba on the linux box to share printers and files between it and a windows PC.

What are your different PC's and whats sharing between what?

There are help files in the library describing how to add and entry to the fstab file for mounting smbfs shares.

BTW mtab is only modified by the OS. The user can view it but should never edit it.
