Also, my arrogant attitude is largely due to the fact that nobody's
reading my points.
I DO NOT want to install OpenVPN.
I DO NOT want to run WinSCP.
I DO NOT want to run an anonymous FTP server.
I want to go:
Start
Run
smb://IP_ADDRESS/sharename
(username)
(password)
POOF.
That is what I want. Period. It's not unreasonable; this is Samba, not
some Win95 box waiting to be h4x0red.
