Accessing shared folders on a PC through a router.
Hi, we have a subnet on out network that does not have or need a VPN, it's basically to keep some small test servers off our network. I have the router setup so it forwards DRP and HTTP traffic for one of the servers and this works fine. How do I get it so I can access shared folders on the same PC? I'm not sure which port to forward.
TCP 139

HI, I'm just using NAT at the moment. It's a basic BB router so not sure what level =of config it can take. Cannot config my router as it's not worth if for what I'm trying to achieve.
The basic set-up up is that we have a router connected to out LAN and on the other side of that router are a few PCs. We just RDP to those PCs by a NAT rule on the router, I'd like to access files on the PC by using a NAT rule too.

it's a bit complicated for what I'm looking for. It's really not a big deal, I just thought I'd be able to do it through NAT.
Yes, you can setup NAT on the ports I specified.
