+ Windows shares can are mapped into the <filename>unc/</filename>
+ directory so anything trying to access
+ <filename>\\machinename\some\dir\and\file</filename> will look in
+ <filename>~/.wine/dosdevices/unc/machinename/some/dir/and/file</filename>.
+ For example, if you used Samba to mount
+ <filename>\\machinename\some</filename> on
+ <filename>/mnt/smb/machinename/some</filename> then you can do
+
+ <programlisting>
+ ln -s /mnt/smb/machinename/some unc/machinename/some
+ </programlisting>
+
+ to make it available in wine (don't forget to create the unc
+ directory if it doesn't alrady exist).
