In the file browser I see the drive as mounted under places, but cannot figure out where to reference it. The media folder has cdrom and cdrom0 folders but these are empty. When I go into the mounted drive in places I see this files on the cd in the drive > In Gnome, you can use the edit button next to the directory name to see the path. A more universal methods, is to look for it from the 'mount' command's output. (samba mounts are supposed to be smbfs / cifs IIRC) If it uses the smb:// notation, you would probably need to mount it manually before using it in Wine. (a FUSE driver that enables you to browser the entire Winodws network within a directory exist as well) iSCSI might be a more elegant (but a lot harder to setup) solution (and MIGHT (with the right features) allow things like games' copy protection and writing to the remote drive to work...) You would need a iSCSI target on the Windows box and an initiator on the Linux box... Some targets for Windows with free versions (that seem to support exporting an entire drive): http://www.rocketdivision.com/download_starwind.html http://www.kernsafe.com/product.aspx?id=5&&name=License+Types Background: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISCSI Gert
