Disable "gateway" in that windows box (only lan connection).

It must be able to communicate with other computers if you want to allow file transfers... if using SMB protocol (and samba at linux side), you can restrict what linux resources are visible in windows neighborhood. You could also use SSH (or SFTP) just for one-way file transfers. Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
