I think this would be handy, but can't find anything about it working from OS-X. Does this work well to backup and transfer files to and from Apple machines
As is said in the article, the shares on the WHS machine are simple CIFS shares, meaning any machine with SAMBA and the proper user credentials can access them. On top of that, you could manage the machine too on a Mac with the Remote Desktop Client for Mac->Windows.
There is, however, not a Mac-native version of the Connector software (yet?).
