samba - Apr 2003 - Write to NT Share from Unix, possible ?

Hi All,

we have been using OMNI-NFS software to share a PC share out to a Unix bos.
The Unix box places files on the PC, but the OMNI-NFS software keeps
crashing and occasionally will not restart at all even after rebooting the
machine and performing ChkDsk/Scandisks.

We would like to replace this with something else, anybody know if Samba can
help here?

Any help even small would be most appreciated!

Thanks
Darren

I don't know what Unix you use. For Linux there is smbfs. You can enable
it in 2.4 Kernel-config. If you compiled samba with --with-smbmount
(linux only) you can then use smbmount to mount Win shares to your linux box.
