'''Samba''' is a free implementation of the ''SMB/CIFS'' protocol which is used to share files and printers in a network. Most modern file managers like '''Dolphin''' and '''Nautilus''' support this protocol.
'''Amarok''' is able to play music from an '''Ampache''' media server. If you want to install a server, see [http://ampache.org/wiki/os_foundation here] for more information. Installation directions are [http://ampache.org/wiki/install here].

You need to mount the share to use it in '''Amarok'''. To do this, you need to install the package ''smbfs''. Use the command
{{Input|1=sudo mount -t cifs //'''host'''/'''share''' '''/mount-point/'''}}
to mount the share. After that you can use it like a local folder and add it to your local collection.


===== Server ===== <!--T:5-->

The easiest way is to use your file manager. On '''Debian'''-based distributions like '''Ubuntu''' you can install a '''Dolphin''' extension to manage shares using

{{Input|1=sudo apt-get install kdenetwork-filesharing}}
Open the properties of a folder in '''Dolphin''' and switch to the <menuchoice>Share</menuchoice> tab.

Click <menuchoice>Configure File Sharing...</menuchoice> to open the configuration dialog.
Activate the '''Ampache''' service using <menuchoice>Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Plugins</menuchoice>. Click on the wrench icon to open the configuration dialog.

Change the settings to <menuchoice>Advanced Sharing</menuchoice> and the <menuchoice>Allowed Users</menuchoice> to <menuchoice>Allow all users to share folders</menuchoice>.
Select <menuchoice>Add Server</menuchoice>:

Configure the service with the data entered on the server:

<!--T:12-->
<!--T:7-->
Then you can add the folder to the shares. Click at <menuchoice>Add...</menuchoice> and share the desired folder with '''Samba'''.
Now the '''Ampache''' service should appear in <menuchoice>Media Sources -> Internet</menuchoice>.

The folder should now be accessible to the network. To tell '''Amarok''' to look for your '''Samba''' share, go to <menuchoice>Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Plugins -> Local Collection Backends</menuchoice> and click the box. Your tracks will show up in '''Local Collection'''.
