Hmm, interesting. I think the only problem might be if they want to start storing other files. Something to look in to though. As for FTP, that was my first thought too, but I wasn't sure how well OSX supported FTP natively. Trying to teach these folks how to use an FTP client might not be pretty. In any case, I'm continuing my search for a SMB server. I might even be able to flip over to Linux to use Samba if it's a live CD or USB boot based. The most promising one I found didn't support NTFS though, which the hard drive is currently formatted in.
