FS seems to assume that only
trusted hosts (not users) will connect. If your share is read-only that may not
be a problem (depending on the information shared).
You should also make sure samba is using (sufficiently strongly) encrypted
passwords as well.
You may want to read the security section of
minutes.

ata-loss, (somebody noted the program refuses to touch
a live filesystem,) the bugs section would have read something more like:
(Program) SHOULD NOT try writing to a live file-system.
That is to say, the word "should" in a "Bugs" section implies a wish-list i
unbootable trying to format removable
media with NTFS because only the installer woulds use that filesystem. The
format utility let me choose between Fat16 and FAt32 or something :P
A better tool, under both Windows (via Cygwin) and BSD, would be ntfsprogs.

Another way of asking the question:
How much of a learning curve is configuring FreeBSD (for Samba, NFS, DVD

disability, or do I really need
ant to use the documentation to do the "right thing" rather than experiment.
