Samba is the right thing to use (despite it's associations with
windows).
The cifs filesystem and unix extensions in the server (not too sure if
the mac supports these fully, but there's no reason why it wouldn't)
can make for a good experience. Automounting requires you to have
either passwordless authentication (not good) or to store the
credentials on the filesystem somewhere.
