On my Solaris server at work, I'm running Samba and sharing the web directory over it so that it can be viewed by the Windows computers at work. I'd like to be able to access this share via SSH on my Linux computer at home; is this possible? I've enabled port forwarding in the /etc/sshd.conf file on the Solaris machine, and port 22 is the only port I allow through the firewall to that server (and even though, port 22 is only accessible from my home IP address).
I've tried: # ssh -f -L2001:localhost:139 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx sleep 20000 followed by # mount -t smbfs //xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/share /path/to/mountpoint -o user="me",password="myPassword" but the connection timed out. When I tried specifying port 2001 in the call to the remote machine in the mount command, of course, the connection was denied. I'm pretty sure I've done this before, but it's been years and I cannot remember how I did it. What am I missing? -- Richard S.
