Default RE: Mapping a drive to a remote machine over the net

In principle yes, but the security aspects are important.

To do t his you need to map port 445 (or ports 137-139) However it would be
highly advisable to have some kind of encryption on the data, as the netbios
ports are easily attacked. You could achieve this wth Zebedee or SSH.

The other alternatives are VPN, or a secure form of FTP server. (Filezilla
Server in TLS mode, for example.)
