Hi Guys, I have a problem. I want to access a shared directory over a WAN link. There are 2 methods available to me, NFS and Samba. Problem is the Client is a Linux Box, and somehow the idea of using samba as a means to an end instead of NFS is a little bit weird (?). But anyway, I tried both and it seems that I have more success using samba to mount the share rather than using NFS. NFS always reports a time-out connecting the server. Yes, there is a 200ms lag in ping times to the server box (WAN link) However, Samba seems to be able to handle it more gracefully than NFS. Ideas?? Comments?? --
