Do like they do in Brazil, samba
There is a tutorial here
Basicly what you do is ($ = your console prompt):
1. start samba:
Code:
$ su
/etc/init.d/samba start
/etc/init.d/samba start
2. make it start everytime you boot knoppix
Code:
$ update-rc.d samba defaults
3. if you like to connect from windows to myth, set a smb password:
Code:
$ smbpasswd -a mythtv
4. make sure you have a samba client, I prefere smbclient which I think is in myth, but if not:
Code:
$ su
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install smbclient
$ apt-get install smbfs
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install smbclient
$ apt-get install smbfs
5. Put winxp music folder and mount it on your myth
Code:
$ su
$ mkdir /myth/music/music_on_xp
$ smbmount //windowsxphost/musicfolder /myth/music/music_on_xp
$ mkdir /myth/music/music_on_xp
$ smbmount //windowsxphost/musicfolder /myth/music/music_on_xp
Then rescan your media in the setupmenu in mythtv.
You might have to use some options to get smbmount to mount properly.
And you need to enable the share to connect to on your windows computer.
Finally, you need to insert the share into /etc/fstab to get it on each reboot:
Code:
//windows-server-name/shared-folder-name /linux/mount/point smbfs username=xp_username,password=xp_password 0 0
