I have a setup similar to yours, down to the use of Squeezebox. The only difference is that my collection is smaller and of mp3's rather than oggs. Amarok seems to have no real problems with the share. >=20 > It seems amarok is a little picky about this. > http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Samba FWIW, here's the relevant entry from my /etc/fstab (all one line in the original): //sanguinaria/music /mnt/sanguinaria smbfs credentials=3D/etc/.samba_credentials,noauto,rw,user,umask=3D000 0 0 >=20 > You should be aware that amarok opens all files to read the metadata > (tags) when you add them to the collection.

I have mt-daapd, the opensource iTunes server, running on my fileserver, so that my wife can easily administer her iPod using WinXP and iTunes. Your music on the iTunes server is then also accessible in recent versions of amarok in the "Media Devices" tab. It appears that mt-daapd supports ogg (although iTunes qua iTunes doesn't).
