well, only if smbd (the samba daemon) is running on the remote server. Samba is generally for making *nix fs appear on Win boxes, no? I am talking ssh here. I tried something like so... % ssh -l username -L 10139:remotehost:139 remotehost sleep 300 (139 is the samba port... I mapped it above to the local 10139 port). Then I went to the finder and tried to connect to smb://remotehost:139/ but that did not work... got error -36. So, I did try it, but... > > -or- > > Using BBEdit choose File -> Open from FTP Server > > No, I can't use ftp. The remote box has sshd running, no ftpd, no telnetd... I guess, I just want it confirmed whether it can be done via ssh or not. If not, then I can embark on a different torture quest. Thanks, pk/
