Hi, Is it possible to use Samba as a drop-in replacement for NFS, namely, allowing a system-wide anonymous mount which authenticates access to files based simply on the unix ids of the user accessing the files and the file permissions are equivalent to what is present in the underlying file system that is exported.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance -Matt
