I'm not sure I really understand your needs/goals - but if you're looking to access your NAS server (NFS?) files over the internet you may want something more like a vpn solution rather than opening up the box to the internet (sounds insecure to me) If you you have a computer on the inside that sees the NAS files, you could also forward a high port to the ssh port on that computer - then use ssh to pull/push files ... some graphical file browsers know how to use ssh to make the remote files 'appear' local in your GUI. I'd prefer this be a computer behind the firewall rather than the firewall itself - ditto for an VPN exercise. gene/ -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
