How share a directory to windows user ?
Hello, thanks for reading this and helping me out,
I have a static ip adres, and i wan't a windows user to connect to a certain folder on my mac where he can read/write stuff in.. but only in a certain folder where i also have access to.
I was thinking about setting up an sftp server, but can i make sure he only has a view of one folder ? Also the usability for this windows user is low since i will need to use a special client to upload/download files.. i would rather have it as a network drive on the windows client (remote via internet)
Do you have any tips where i can go ? I have shell expierence and configurating linux programs is not a problem for me.. do i need to install samba for this ? Whatabout safety ? I guess that sucks bigtime then...
Cheers

There's a program I found called sharepoints that lets you do it the OS 9 way with user and groups:
