> firewall issue there...suppose we could pop a hole though.

Ugh. You probably don't want to simply "pop a hole through". Instead, from a
security perspective, you'd be better off using something other than Windows
Networking (which uses several ports with NetBIOS over TCP/IP, unless you
use the Direct Host functionality in Windows 2000) to transfer the files,
and pop a hole through for that. Most network admins would be reluctant to
allow Windows Networking through their firewalls - if the first server gets
compromised, the attacker will already have rights to the internal machine
as a Windows user.
