Weird SMB/Samba Question

[KoReE <koree@ameth.org>]

Does anyone know if it's possible for me to specify a different port other
than 139 for my Windows machine to connect to for shares on a Samba
server?  The reason I ask is that I'm trying to use port forwarding to
encrypt an SMB share.  I have a Linux machine at the remote end, so I can
forward say to port 11139.  And then use a windows SSH client to forward
to that port....blah blah blah.  But, Windows, as far as I know, can't
specify which port to connect to to retrieve the share.  I looked at the
"net use" DOS command with no luck.  I know it sounds weird.  Basically,
I'm wanting a way to mount shares on a windows machine, and be able to
specify a port other than 139.

Thanks,

Koree
