Or at least more unknown. roygbiv: The Ubunut formus might be able to give you a quicker / more accurate awnser on the specific location of Samba mounts under Ubuntu. It might also be easier to try and create a ISO CD image and to mount that under Linux. (The command prompt version is "mount -o loop /path/to/image.iso /mnt/mountpointname" with the mountpoint an empty directory) You then add the mountpoint in winecfg and and set it as a cd-rom. (cdemu is needed for more advanced funtionality, such as playing audio cd's/ VCDs) ISO CD images can easily be created under Windows with ImgBurn (or most CD writing programs, although outputting to an ISO is often not obvious). Under Linux dd can be used, as well as most CD writing programs. imgBurn: http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=screenshots#isoread dd image creation: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-creating-cd-rom-iso-image.html (Try k3b, etc is probably less intimidating..) jorl17: Editing was disabled, because it broke mailing-list integration IIRC.
