I've successfully connected my two PCs to a hub and am now sharing the Windows XP box's MP3 directory. I've got the method to connect the remote directory (\\thebeast\music) to a mount point (/tmp/music), but it's a pain in the rear to load up the SuperUser Konsole and type out the command each time I start the computer. (The Linux box is quite noisy, and can be heard from the bedroom at night, thus leaving it on 24/7 is not an option! :) ) Is there a file I can add the line to so that the mount is done automatically each time the computer starts?

You could add the command to a cron job to do it every time you boot up the PC.

What about the rc.d directories? I'm familiar with SCO, thats where I usually put boot up commands. I'm not sure if its the same under Linux.

Not too familiar with linux, but can you put an entry into /etc/fstab? That should mount everytime you boot the system.
