What is it that you're looking for? You can limit a Samba share to a specific user and (I think) IP address, and give Linux permissions to that user to only a few files or directories. Is there more you need? You can audit the transactions that happen on the share by increasing the logging level of the Samba share. > I was thinking of using scp but I havent found an easy solution for vfp that > utilizes scp. PuTTY offers a means of implementing scp on Windows, and I've set up some batch files that do scheduled copies via scp. There are security issues, since its difficult to protect a key file in Windows from unsecured access. With Pagant, you can keep the key only in memory, but you'll need to reload it each time the machine restarts -- I do this for some client servers that are supposed to stay running 24x7. If the client machine is relatively secure, you could just keep the key file on disk. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
