Thread: Playing music files across LAN

-

to able access music stored on 1 ubuntu pc ubuntu pc across lan, software/settings need on:
  • the "server" (xubuntu 12.04)
  • the "client" (ubuntu 13.04)


want play via rhythmbox if stored locally.

in advance.

there many, many ways this. easiest use network file sharing. lots of how-to articles exist stuff. search
* nfs
* cifs
* samba
* sshfs
basically, want "mount" portion of remote storage (where music stored) on client machine. after that, local machine able "see" music , can play it.

option setup media server on "server" machine , playback "client" on client machine. again, lots , lots of ways accomplish this. use gnump3 music streaming server myself. music player support http streaming can handle web browser front-end.

or setup dlna server handle music, videos, , photos. lots of these exist too. mediatomb, minidlna, ps3mediaserver ...

pick 1 of methods, 1 of specific ways share media , search how-to.

suggestion use nfs linux-to-linux file sharing. google "nfs ubuntu" https://www.google.com/search?client...s&q=ubuntu+nfs , pick how-to.
