I've already tested SHLIGHT+FTPD ... It works fine. I have no problem
with that. The ftp server is ok. Every user is chrooted to its home
directory and everythig is just fine. Then I installed sharity-light
from the OpenBSD ports that also worked fine.
My problem is that there's no advanced documentation for the shlight
command. So I can't set up a solution where everything is filtered by
PF if i can't decide wich port will be used ...
I'll give you an example :
When you mount a windows share using shlight :
#shlight //x.x.x.x/share /home/me/w2k -U user -P pwd
Everything is ok and shlight after mounting tha share comes up with :
"Using port 10392 for NFS."
Ok fine. But when I try to determine the used nfs port usind the
switch "-p" as mentionned in the help "shlight -h", something goes
wrong ...
#shlight //x.x.x.x/share /home/me/w2k -U user -P pwd -p 12345
shlight answers :
"error connecting to server: [1] Operation not permitted"
But i need to detrmine a pool of ports that I can trust throught PF !
This is only an example. I mean If I want to set up a soft solution, I
need a real documentation of shlight. smbfs documentation won't help I
think ...

Thanx ...
