Do you need a mount, or will a network file copy do?

Can the Client be on Windows, or must it be ubuntu?

By using CIFS smb etc...(man samba for a start...)

Sometimes it is easier to mount a UNIX disk on Windows than the opposite, but sometimes that is more trouble, less secure and versatile than just installing ssh2 on both ends.

~ root@whatever # mount_smbfs //user@winnt/pub /mnt , where user option is your username in unix and winnt is your windows name, pub is a share folder and /mnt is mount point. if you installing in 1 pc. "dual boot....etc, use mount fat32
