External Folder Access

[boxster8]

Hi All,

I have a 3 offices (not on the same domain, with static IP from AT&T) that need to share a folder with read/write access at one site. All locations have XP SP2 and one of the locations also has Windows 2000 server, which I'm rebuilding. I want the other two sites to be able to get to this server (or XP workstation)with file sharing to share this folder. What would be the best way to do this? I added 135, 137 and 445 pinholes to the router, but I'm not sure of the next step..or if this is the best way. Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Don

I'd look at using WebDAV. With it you can create a shortcut to a web folder, then all you need to do is set your security to block out external people.

I hope you find this post helpful.
