Samba,
Can someone please detail how one would permanently mount samba shares
between two unix boxes so as to emulate (or replace) NFS. I know you can do
it temporarily with smbclient but isn't that just the same as using an ftp
client ?
I am keen to benchmark samba's performance versus NFS on my system as we do
a lot of cross workstation communication (unfortunately all on one switched
hub) so I want to minimise traffic.
Thanks in advance.
