Secure NetBIOS or NFS? No such animal. You could, however, solve the
problem two ways.
1) Build a client-to-LAN SecuRemote VPN and encrypt all the traffic
using this tunnel. SInce the NT machines are untrusted, however, I
would ONLY give them access to that one machine using the tunnel - NOT
your whole internal network.
2) Suggest that they install SSH (http://www.openssh.org) on the UNIX
box, then tell the clients to download an SSH client for NT. SSH allows
for simple file transfer, encrypted telnet-like shell access, and
tunneling of various protocols. IMHO, this is your best option.
Hope this helps!
