True. Very true. And I should have also added that it
is not secure over the Internet. You still need to
tunnel it. As someone else has already mentioned,
stunnel (see http://www.stunnel.org/examples/) is
being used successfully for secure samba connections
over the Internet. Don't know about FreeSWAN, never
used it with Samba.
