Hey all-
    Thanks in advance for answering my question, I've been struggling over
it for weeks. My setup here at college is an internal Lan of a Linux and
Win2k machines behind an OpenBSD firewall/NAT. I have shares on the w2k box,
like printer, possibly music that I would like to be able to access from the
internet with my laptop. I've considered using SSH tunnels, but I don't see
how that could work with NetBIOS. I also messed around with a VPN on OpenBSD
with isakmpd, but couldn't get that to work, most likely because my laptop
is XP and get's its IP address from DHCP. Are there any other solutions,
like using some sort of Samba proxy on the OBSD machine to authenticate me
with the 2k box. Or is using a VPN to connect a host to a net (tunnel mode,
i think) the best/most secure way of doing this. If someone has gotten xp
and openbsd working with only 1 static IP, it would be much appreciated if
they could post their config.

Thanks,
Eric
