[Samba] how to access samba server from remote location

[Muthukumaran Saravanan]

hi

thanks for the update.

But we have fixed ip provided by the isp, can we assign that ip also to
the server so that can we access the server outside the local network
without making VPN. I tried this but iam able to access in the same
network but not in the remote officice.

How can i do this without making VPN. We have 2 static ip.

Pls help me.
