here's what i want to do...
we have a machine sitting chugging away in the house all the time, which contains all our dvds, music, videos, pictures and whatnot, so we can view them downstairs. now, what i want to do is set up some sort of web page for the technically illiterate in my house to get to the files so they can watch them up stairs if they want to watch something different to everyone else(going into "my network places" is too difficult for them, trust me...). so, can anyone shed some light on how it would be done?
the computer is called mediacentre; is it simply a case of creating a simple website with directory listing, and putting the links as
\\mediacentre\video\wahtever.mp3? or is there a method that will work, and will do it better than this? it only has to be accessible from the internal network, setting up an entire web server etc isn't necessary...or legal...for what we're doing...
if anyone can make head or tail of my post help appreciated
