The Syzygy 6-men EGTB system is the recommended table base solution for Houdini.
For the Syzygy EGTB support you'll need to install the Syzygy EGTB files. At the time of writing all the Syzygy files are available for torrent download athttp://oics.olympuschess.com/tracker/index.php. The 3-4-5-men Syzygy are also available for direct download at http://olympuschess.com/egtb/sbases.
Update: the 6-men Syzygy are now also available as HTTP download, see http://tablebase.sesse.net/syzygy.
The total size of the 3-4-5-men files is 938 MB (290 files), the 6-men table bases require 149 GB (730 files).

For the Gaviota EGTB support you'll need to install the Gaviota EGTB files. At the time of writing they are available for download at the address http://www.olympuschess.com/egtb/gaviota. Download all 145 files and save them in a directory on your hard disk. The total disk space required is about 7 GB.
Alternatively you could skip the download and generate the tables directly on your own computer, please follow the instructions found at the Gaviota web site.

For the Nalimov EGTB support you'll need to install the Nalimov EGTB files. At the time of writing they are available for download at the address ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu/pub/hyatt/TB orhttp://tablebase.sesse.net. Download all files and save them in a directory on your hard disk. The total disk space required for the 3-4-5-men table bases is about 7 GB (290 files in total).
