It can also be done with Samba. If you have samba running on one of the
boxes, you're almost halfway there. Install samba on the other machine,
then set up a share wherever the mp3s are located. (This might be the
hardest part, depending on how familiar you are with Samba.)
Once the share is in place, you do this:
mount -t smbfs //hostname1/sharewithmp3s /mnt/mp3s
or something similar.
