You can also ping the laptop from the Humax if you open a Telnet session.

I've never needed to use network shares automount on my laptop to play a file from the Humax. With the samba package installed from the custom firmware I just browse to the file in the custom firmware browser, click on it and select 'Play'. The file needs to be decrypted to play but that's automatically done too thanks to the cf.

You need to Share the c:\users\david\downloads directory. Then it should pop-up in the "net share" list and the Humax will probably then make the mapping.
You can either do it with the GUI or just do "net share downloads=c:\users\david\downloads"

He's trying to go the other way: automount is about creating a virtual USB at the Humax using the laptop (or other NAS) as the source of content.

I'm currently trying to telnet into the box, but the 0000 password is coming back as humax# 0000
-/bin/sh:0000: not found
Any ideas?

The password 0000 is used to FTP into the Humax, not Telnet, there are some notes on Telneting into the Humax on the Wiki HERE, if you are getting the humax# prompt then you have already successfully telneted into your Humax, try something like ls -al e.g.
Code:
humax# ls -al

That screen is waiting for you to enter a linux type command. I'm not sure what you want to do while using Telnet, if you was expecting the Humax Telnet Menu screen, I'm guessing you have disabled it it Web-If >> Settings >> Advanced Settings >> Expert mode telnet server?, you can get it back by entering tmenu at the command, this will require a tmenu password of 0000 e.g.
To get back to the humax# command line prompt you would select cli
Code:
humax# tmenu
Menu version 1.06
Enter system PIN: ****

Yeah, got a load of files and dates, I'm looking to ping the laptop from the humax, what command would I put in?

Just enter ping followed by the laptop's IP address. NOTE to escape from ping use Ctrl+c e.g. :-
Code:
humax# ping 10.0.0.100

Ok, so I have pinged in both directions and all is ok on that front. I right clicked the downloads folder and selected share with, then specific people, then my user account. When I go back and right click the folder, then share with, the padlock icon is beside nobody, can anyone confirm that this is to be expected? 
The Dav mount shows on the storage USB menu, but disappears after a min or so

Thanks prpr!! That sorted it, I missed your post earlier, but I input those commands and when typing net share, the downloads folder shows up, the same goes for the wife's laptop. Thanks everyone for you help, it's much appreciated
