I was also in the process of setting up a file server to serve both Linux+Windows boxes - Is there any reasons one would not just run Samba? Just contemplating whether I should actualy use NFS...as another poster suggested it was "a total bandwidth whore" The same poster also mentioned not to run NIS for user auth due to security issues - Alternatives being LDAP, Kerberos and maybe Radius? Would anyone care to share there experiences with these? Regards, MB
