Hello,

The problem i have is i need to be able to setup a File sharing
mechanism between two Win'98 computers( or LANs ) over the internet
with ability of mapping a share as a local drive.
I assume i couldn't setup regular Windows File Sharing (SMB) for this
purpose.

Any ideas?

Thank you,
Andrey

You probably could, but it might not be a good idea, security-wise.

You might want to look at VPNs (Virtual Private Networks).
