[Samba] Can SAMBA be used to map a WINDOWS directory to a UNIX SERVER (pa rticularly SOLARIS)?
Hi: We were wondering if SAMBA can be used to make a windows share look like a UNIX filesystem to the UNIX server? I know it works in reversre. Just checking to see if there were new functionality I was not privy to.

There is no such filesystem driver for Solaris (that I am aware of). -- Jeff Layton <jtlayton@poochiereds.net>
