Re: Westell 327W Firewall How can I find out about using "http" or "ssh" for file transfers? As I have always used FTP, I have not found out the advantages or disadvantages of the other protocols. My goal is to be able to access my home files while I am on the road.
As of now, the only protection I seem to have on my NAS preventing outside theft is the name and passwords I use. They are all abnormal, so the bots trying to break in have not been successful (so far). But it is just darn disconcerting to look at the logs and see all the attempts. |

| You would need to be running an http server (web server) or an ssh server.
I normally using linux on my home system, so there is an ssh server automatically started. I don't know what is available for windows. I use putty as an ssh client on windows, but that's not a server.

Recent Macs are using unix beneath the hood (apparently based on BSD unix). Both openssh and apache should be available.
Note that I am not a Mac user, and I do not have any experience setting these up.
