> Hi there,
> Currently Samba 3.20.b (SLES 9.3) is running in a standalone server in  AMD64 platform. Users from Windows platform can create/delete NFS files without logging into the Samba server, username exist in the sambaserver but no password is required to map a share e.g. \\sambaserver\sharename. We would like to move to VMware ESX 3.2 update 4 platform running in x86-64 platform.

It works fine, but as you know virtualized disk-io is not so efficient 
as real server. (remember to install vmware tools also)
