| Both solutions [[docs:user-guide:services:nas:samba]] and [[docs:user-guide:services:nas:nfs.server]] do not offer security though encryption and are thus only suited for use in a closed intranet. If you need to remotely access files over the internet, it is better to use an encrypted solution. Whilst not offering as strong an encryption as a VPN, it is quite easy to set up. In this recipe you will be shown how to set up and configure a sshfs instead of using OpenVPN or setting up a encrypted tunnel with [[doc:uci:network]]. sshfs is based on SFTP so you need to install sftp support on the server. | Both solutions [[docs:guide-user:services:nas:samba]] and [[docs:guide-user:services:nas:nfs.server]] do not offer security though encryption and are thus only suited for use in a closed intranet. If you need to remotely access files over the internet it is better to use an encrypted solution. The two common ways to do that are to use sshfs or to use samba or nfs over a VPN.
