Hello

Sorry for the recommendation, I saw the smb2www package in the samba site
and assumed was the one I am using, but didn't remember the name until I
did
check inside the apache directory :-)

this is the project:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsamba/

but surfing I just found a java -very complete- client which can be used
inside your browser and has also good advantages, you can check both and
decide:
http://jcifs.samba.org/


With Regards
Gabriel

My bet is exactly the same as you alredy had, but adding a VPN in front
of
it.

your users connect to the VPN, and from there to wmb2www which will ask
for
user/password and will let them browse, download/upload files
remotelly.
taking in consideration this makes broadcast innecesary and that
transmission is much better over http than on SMB, this is very good
way to
solve your problem.

With Regards

Hi There,
I got file server Red Hat Linux that is accessible only inside from
my
organization. I am just wondering is there any kind of secure method
so
that people can access files from the outside world without any
hitch
with security. I was thinking is there any kind of web interface
method
so that people just enter there user names & get access to files.
But
this I think will involve running web server which I don't want to
do.
Is there any other solution out there ???

Thanks,

Kanwar Sidhu
