Creating a samba share in Zorin 7

Hi

Recently installed Zorin 7 and so far, so good!

However, I am stuck trying to create a permanently shared folder from which to access my music in Clementine. In Windows, the address of my music folder is \\GOFLEX_HOME\GOFLEX HOME PERSONAL\MUSIC (it is a Seagate NAS and is password protected)

Google searches suggest I need to create a permanently shared folder using Samba, but I can't seem to follow any of the guides as they assume a knowledge of Linux.

I'm a complete Linux newbie so plain English instructions would be appreciated!

Thanks..

I see that you haven't had a reply in a while, so I'll give a possibly incorrect one.
I wonder if you need to edit your /etc/fstab file to tell Linux to mount the Samba share's mount point on boot? I'm afraid I don't know the syntax for this, but it may be a hint to follow up. If I learn more, I'll post it here as well (Suddenly, I think I need to do this as well).

Hi,

start here, I don't do it myself so I can not be of further help to you:
