Richard, true NetServer is problematic in many areas, and SAMBA is better in
those areas.
There is a big BUT with SAMBA, there are security issues, one of which is
Kerberos authentication among some others.
I like SAMBA a lot, (and we run it at Agile) but before that road gets
traveled there needs to be a clear understanding of the pitfalls vs. the
advantages. Most of my customers opted to stay with NetServer because of
comparison.

Better yet pre-install SAMBA.
NetServer has always been a sub-par file server.

IBM approved the RFE as "planned for future release".

Now, I'm stuck waiting on rNext.
