Hi I'm looking for any kind of secure file server access. SFTP, SCP, webdav over HTTPS, secure samba -- anything!
Or, any kind of freely available VPN solution.
My phone is an N95, but I'm interested in anything that works on any S60 phones.
Does something like this exist yet? Or is it something that needs to be filled?

Simon,
give www.soonr.com (http://www.soonr.com) a try.
You download a client to your PC and create an account. You can specify which directories on your PC you wish to share and can then access these directories from any PC or mobile device via https.

Soonr looks pretty interesting but I'd rather not give a 3rd party access to my confidential files.
Fortunately, I've found a solution for read-only access to my file server. It turns out that WebDAV (aka DAV) does have a built-in web browser interface. In apache I just needed to add Options Indexes (and make sure you lock down access to be valid-user only) to enable it. So, now I have read-only access to my personal files via the browser on my phone. Sweet.

SymSMB 2.00 will do the secure file access between phone and computer.
You could have a look here. (http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/forum/showthread.php?t=61495)

Thanks for the info. SymbSMB looks interesting.
Fortunately I've figured out that I can use my HTTPS WebDAV from my phone using just the browser. It's read only but I'm not editing the files on the computer so that's OK. And it's free :-)
