I'm a relative newbie and have been experimenting with ssh tunneling. The problem is when I try to open a file on the tunneled share, windows explorer freezes. I can copy and past to the share but not open files there. BTW, my regular (not tunneled) share works fine. I'm using samba 2.07 on the server and windows puTTy on the client. puTTy is set to forward ports 137-138 from localhost to the server. The share was mounted using this dos command: net use g: \\cameronlocal\cam and cameronlocal entered into lmhosts: 127.0.0.1 cameronlocal Cam
i have'nt got this to work yet but have a look at the section called "SSH and SMB" here: heimhardt.com/htdocs/ssh.html Noel -----Original Message----- From: Cam [mailto:cambrink@interbaun.com] Sent: 24 March 2002 17:47 To: Samba List Subject: [Samba] ssh tunnel causes win98 to hang I'm a relative newbie and have been experimenting with ssh tunneling.

Thanks for the link Noel. Actually that is the one that got me as far as I am now with ssh. Since I posted my previous message, windows stopped hanging and gave an "invalid directory" message when trying to open a file on a ssh tunneled samba share. However, I was able to open the same text file using DOS.
