Hi,

 

Sometimes I need to access work files on my server when on holiday or at another location. Can someone recommend a secure way to access the server with a  normal file browser on a PC/Mac or even use it as a shared drive for a remote located Dune etc?

 

Thanks.

I have LogMeIn Hamachi installed, primarily for telnet access. I've found that if I try to access the GUI through Hamachi when I'm out of town or something, the GUI ends up becoming unresponsive... telnet access works fine though. It also allows me to browse my files as if I was right there on the same network, but it is dog slow (the upload speed on my internet package is awful). See this thread:

Of course, you also have to have the Hamachi client installed on whatever machine you are using to access your server, and they both have to be members of the same Hamachi network.

Peter created a openVPN server plugin. Works great for me.

Thanks I'll have a look.

 

I am hoping access from my iPad might be possible just to attach files to emails etc.

Openvpn also works with apple.
