hi,

i think this is one reason why "kernel oplocks" has been integrated but i´m not sure if this always works 100%.

Hi all,
        If I have a linux server running samba for filesharing and I use NFS to
make these shares available on another linux server that also runs samba
to share the same shares will the locking still work properly?

I can use this to get around an issue with multiple authentication
domains and I suspect NFS is less chatty than SMB anyway so will mean a
peformance win as well across the WAN.

Can you see any other problems with this setup?

TIA,

Greg
