How can I link to a directory on a remote computer??

I m new to linux and I was wondering how can I spend my time and work on one computer and save my data to another (server) without constantly using smbmount or similar commands.Is there a way to create a Symlink or something (a directory on my system that will actually be on another) that will be there when my comp restarts etc..? I would appreciate if anyone could help me with my problem....

You can mount the shares at boot up in your fstab file. Here's one way to do it:

You can also put all your smbmount commands in a script to be run at startup. Most distros of Linux support using /etc/rc.d/rc.local.
