I would like to set up a remote share that is accessible via the Internet from my home computer. I am already familiar with setting up network shared folders, but only within a LAN environment. I would imagine the same sort of basics apply to a WAN environment as well, but I am unsure as to what port numbers, if any, need to be forwarded for me to connect to the share via the Internet. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
