NFS and Samba

hi there - hope you can help.

can I export a filesystem over NFS, and also set that filesystem up as a
samba share?

or will it conflict and get messy somehow?

I want home directories to be held centrally on a server running NFS (keep
it tidy, easy to administer and backup etc) but for people using windows to
also be able to access those home directories (easy transfer of files
between windows and their linux accounts)

I'm sure this is a common setup at many companies, but I've never done it
before so thought I'd check with people more experienced than me :-)

FYI - the NFS homes are under /export/home2 on the server, so I was just
going to share this directory under samba rather than use the [homes]
definition in the smb.conf file (which would share /home right?)

thanks very much for your help.
