Re: [PLUG] Ports needed to use Samba or MS networking functions

[Jesse Huestis <jhuestis@comcast.net>]

Thanks for the log monitoring idea.   That  will  give me some data.  I 
ma using WPA for exernal security.  I have also made it so only the IP 
range I have assigned can access the Internet and all others get know 
access.  It should frustrate a hacker and have them try elsewhere since 
there are open WI-FI LAN around I have identified using Netstumbler.

We have temp. shared a local printer for the wireless folks to use.

Any other ideas as to the ports, please keep it coming.

Thanks,

Jesse
