samba - May 2003 - Running SQL or Exchange over SAMBA

Does anyone have any experience (or even know if it is possible) to run
Microsoft SQL and Exchange with the database files stored on a Samba share?

Thank you.

Yes, this should work as I know that NetApp supports this on their
systems (and Samba has much better CIFS compatability than NetApp :-).

Hello, I read this message just today. I am interested in running MS SQL
with the databases stored on a Samba Share, I will need to do this pretty
soon. But, does MS SQL let you install the program on an NT server and the
database files on a Linux Server? And will I, since I am short of NT client
access licences, get around this issue?

Thank you for your help
