hi all
i almost have sharity-light working well enough to be able to map a windows=
 share to my freebsd5.1 box.

the two machines are:=20
1. Freebsd 5.1-RELEASE, DHCP but i'm using dyndns.org to map the address of=
 'machine1.gotdns.org' to this machine, ipfilter enabled
2. Windows Xp pro, DHCP but i'm using dyndns.org to map the address of 'mac=
hine2.gotdns.org' to this machine, windows xp built in firewall turned on

i'm able to successfully map a windows share on the winxp machine using

as root:
shlight //24.24.24.24/files /mnt/win -U username -P password

in order to do this i had to disable the built in windows firewall on the w=
inxp box. is there a way to do this without having to disable the built in =
windows firewall entirely? or is there a way to set up a stateful connectio=
n from a specific ip address using the windows built in firewall? (i doubt =
it)

also - if you notice, i've had to use the 24.24.24.24 ip address in my line=
 above. i have to use the ip address, and to put the following line in my /=
etc/hosts to get this working

24.24.24.24 machine2.gotdns.org machine2

i'd really like to use 'machine2' or machine2.gotnds.org' in my sharity-lig=
ht command, but it doesn't seem to like it (says either machine name doesn'=
t exist or is too long). this kind of defeats the purpose of using dyndns.o=
rg for dhcp mapping to a hostname. is there any way around this, so i don't=
 have to edit my /etc/hosts every time my ip address changes?

any comments welcome...
