[maemo-users] [maemo-users] Filesharing over 802.11

[From: John B. Holmblad]

John/Humberto,

Apple's OS X does support CIFS file sharing on which both Samba and 
Microsoft file sharing are based. Here is just one reference that 
discusses Apple's OS X SMB/CIFS client:

Although I have not used it, I am sure that OS X also has an SMB/CIFS 
server as well for interoperability with Microsoft clients.


Best Regards,
