Thanks for the offer of sending the script off-list - that would be good
because I'm still struggling to get the XP machines to connect.
It was strange because when I first carried out the steps in the
instructions the shares showed up straight away - even mapped the share
to a drive letter and connected Sage to the data file on the share.
That was on Friday. Then I went back on Monday and nothing would show
the shares!!!
I'm determined to get to the root of this because it is such a useful
feature for clients - effectively the files are still accessed over
Samba. This is probably preferable to sharing the data files out over
ssh or FTP using buggy little programs such as SftpShare or Netdrive.
Thanks again,
Kevin

I successfully connect to Samba using plink (part of the PuTTY family of apps).
I've also written a script to map the Samba share under WinXP.
I can send you the bat files off list or post them if there's interest.

Hi,
Has anyone successfully got a Windows PC to access Samba over an SSH
tunnel. This first of all worked immediately - but now seems to have
stopped.
