Good Morning!

Here at the shop, there is a mixture of W2K workstations and FreeBSD 4.10 servers. Is there a non-NetBIOS file server that runs on FreeBSD that will allow access to files from the windows clients?

We're already using samba, but I don't allow any NetBIOS traffic through our firewall. I'd like to be able to work on files while I'm at home.

Scott - an option you may wanna consider is setting up a vpn. Once set up, the vpn can allow samba traffic to your home machines, allow you to map drives in winALL, etc. Quite a bit more secure than just allowing samba through your public interface too... Another option might be SFTP, the free program 'WinSCP3' has a kinda nice interface, and of course sftp is part of freebsd already.

hope this helps a bit ~j
