[Samba] file sharing over Internet

[Thiago Lima]

If you setup an VPN you can use your machine (and samba) over the
Internet in a secure way.

Ahh, for for that take a look at WINS, it will enable you to use \\NAME

Thats a very bad idea as thats how lots of windows virusses try to
spread :)

Have a look at SSH; you can login, copy files, run remote sessions, all
reasonably securely. You can probably tunnel a samba connection through
an ssh connection too :)

Hi,

I have setup a Samba in Local network and working perfect. I want to
release my share over Internet so that my PC at home can access this
share at the RUN \\MYIPADDRESS. Is it possible?
