I can understand way Alltel did this.  It is just an example of a provider taken control
over something they shouldn't have too in order to keep support calls down. I don't need
to do an example on this list I am sure.

&gt; Subject: [ale] SMB options
&gt;
&gt;
&gt; Hello,
&gt;
&gt; I have an FTP server sittting on the Internet.  One group of users uploads
&gt; files via FTP the other group downloads those files via SMB.  Securing SMB
&gt; communications in most cases is handeled by listing the SMB users's IP
&gt; address in an IPTables rule with a -j ACCEPT.  But recently I gained an SMB
&gt; user an ALLTel's network and ALLTel blocks port 135.  The only options I can
&gt; come up with is eithher FreeSwan or PopTop and from recent experiences I'm
&gt; not excited about using either.  I wonder if I could run SMB on another port?
&gt; Under Linux I don't see a problem but the Windows workstations mounting the
&gt; share can't be modified since they also participate in an SMB based LAN.  Any
&gt; suggestions are welcomed.
&gt;
&gt; Thanks.
