In order to run NFS, you must start portmap first, otherwise remote
mounting of the nfs share will not work.

While you can do this with Samba, it's not a good idea.
Samba was designed to permit sharing files with WINBLOWS machines.
As a result it frequently drops Linux/Unix specific characteristics of
files... I.E. some permissions, etc.
It also has trouble with certain filenames which are permitted
Try drakesync if you'd like. IT will use SSL to do so, or SSH, I can't
remember which.
You can also use scp.
scp FILE.NAME $[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/path/for/file
Do a which for scp to make sure it's installed and then check the man
page for more information.
