Hi People,
This is probably not too much realated to NTDOM stuff but...
Has anyone tried to run samba on a slow machine like a SparcStation IPC?
I have a client that would like to do so but I am unclear just what sort
of performance he will get compared to NFS.
>From experience, using low end 486's has been fine except for when the
client tries to connect to a share or is doing domain negotiation. These
can take a wee bit of processing power but the rest just requires a bit
of RAM.
If anybody has done some benchmarks of samba vs nfs I would definitely
like to hear the results.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
