Re: Mounting SMB shares...

If the shares are not in a domain, simply type:

smb:\\mce\media\music

That should work for you. If you need authentication, you add the user
before an @ sign.

smb:JoeCool@mce\media\music

This I knew. What I'd like is simply a /music folder in root... (or usr,
or all users home directory, or wherever the logical location would be
for user data)

...also want it mounted automagically at boot.

I should add that although I can browse the SMB shares and copy files from
the share to my home directory, I can't play MP3 files from the SMB share
using Amarok. (So far the only player & filetype I've tried).
