I'm running samba on several machines (my Debian file servers - and last but not least on my Macs) - so installing samba it is only the matter of getting the correct packages for the ARM architecture and adding some entries to smb.conf.

Nevertheless i'm seconding dropbear, because you need it anyway to get a more comfortable secure shell access to the iLiad. And i regard a connection using ssh or scp as much more secure than a samba session, as ssh/scp uses a very strong encryption (i usually have all my machines configured so i can access them from the internet).

@Scotty1024: I didn't see the dropbear-removal-issue on my iLiad (2.8).

@Mathijs: I was refering to the bricking issue when installing dropbear from scratch without the help of a convenient package. I used your package to install dropbear: No bricking
