i don't know about monitoring by process, but monitoring by port number should be possible. with samba that would be ports 137-139, check /etc/services for a complete list.
so, you're running smb across the wan? that sounds...odd. 99% of the time smb is used only on a lan, there are probably better methods for sharing files across the net. ftp, http, fish, and so on. take a look at http://bytehoard.org/ as well. jason On Thursday 16 September 2004 09:37, Joshua Gitlin wrote: > Hey TriLUG, > > I just installed Samba on a server for a potential client looking for > a custom hosting solution.
