How to File Share via Internet?

[wowzer]

I've just switched over to FIOS.


I've always had a static IP address with a domain connected to that address, allowing me to SSH to my computer at home from anywhere.


Now that I've gone to DHCP/verizon, I want to be able to file share. What is the best way? Does .Mac allow me to do this? Does anyone have an idea on what I can do?

Perhaps even a cron job which will run once an hour to issue an email with my updated IP address will work. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I dont need it to be mission critical, but I would like to be able to access my files via SSH.

Thanks all.

wow. .Mac really is nice...very easy to work with...

iDisk is what I want...cool...no need for any other shenanigans...

Does anyone know if I need to open any ports in my firewall for .Mac to work seamlessly?

I didn't have to open any ports for .Mac. I have DHCP (Cable) for years.

wowzer, you do realize you've been carrying on a conversation with yourself, don't you?

and no, no port opening needed for mobileme.

:boink:

What? Where did all those other posts go??? ;-)


Yeah...I was just having a stream of consciousness with myself.

I'm just a bit upset at you folks for not telling me about .Mac and how it's evolved. Niffty service.

sharing files over the internet? cannot be done

you need to mail those 5 1/4" floppies

[wowzer]

I only have a few of these...is this what you mean?




Or do you mean one of them new fangled small disks?




Ah...5 1/4" floppies:
