| Hi All,

| Their box is running some windows server version and they use terminal

| to let their employees access their applications.
|
| We use Samba in or local office environment where it works quite well. I
| need
| to know the following:
|
| 1) Will Samba work over the internet?
|
| 2) Can Samba connections be encrypted or do I need to look at
|    something like OpenVPN to provide that?
|
| 3) Can I restrict connections over the internet to a single IP address?
|
| 4) Anything else I should be aware of?
|
| TIA,
|
