Maybe I could mount the disk on the server using samba?
samba over an unsecured link will be fairly difficult to (safely) implement. based on your situation, my suggestion is for your friend to build the website locally and then use scp/sftp to transfer the content directory to your remote web server. this way, only 22/ssh is open on the web server, along with 80/http and 443/https as needed by apache. here is one of the more popular windows-based SCP/SFTP clients: http://winscp.net/eng/index.php http://winscp.net/eng/docs/introduction with this tool, your web author can drag and drop the content directory onto the destination directory scp/sftp window for your server. n.b. you could get a bit more complicated by using a revision control system (e.g. CVS) or by using rsync tunneled through ssh. http://rsync.samba.org/ http://rsync.samba.org/features.html regards, jim
