So you want to mount a drive from NT on the Linux box, and then share that
shared drive?
Is there a reason you can't just share the NT drive directly? I'm guessing
it would be faster, wouldn't it? If there's a reason, great -- but otherwise
I'd think it would be easier to take the direct approach than to pipe a
share through the Linux machine.
