Heh Rich!
From both you, Rich, and Paul, Thanks.
It may sound like a stupid question to some, but as my Dad, now 20 years gone used to say - "There's no such thing as a stupid question, if you really don't know"
Haven't had a chance to try out Paul's suggestions just yet - a birthday (my wife's) yesterday, and entertaining has made this a busy week.
Best to you, Sirs!

how does Samba server fit into ArcaOS, as it seems ArcaMapper is about using Samba Client
It's no different than, say, http:
* if you want your machine to send files to other computers on request, Samba Server
* if you want your machine to request files from other computers, Samba Client
A Peer network just combines both functions in a single package.
