      Hi,

      can pfSense copy (better move) file from a network drive to another?

      More general can I execute script to do network operation?

      Share a pfsense folder/disk ?

      Thank you very much.

      :)

            Yes, but…

            It's a firewall - not a general purpose server.  If you want a general purpose server then start with one.  Adding things like Samba (for access to Windows shares) significantly reduces it's security making it a less effective firewall.

                Thank you very much, I understand.

                I use pfSense only like a content web proxy, firewall is not necessary (there is other firewall unit in the network)

                I will think about.
