This is how I approach te music on another machine.
On the server remote_machine I created a shared folder music where my mp3’s are located (in this case a synology nas [known as syno on the netwerk], so everything has been set up allready there).
On my laptop created a dir /mnt/music
sudo mkdir /mnt/music
And the mount command:
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=admin //syno/music /mnt/music
In my case a password is now been asked.
