stress test for Samba

[Jianliang Lu]

Hi,
We are going to using Samba for the Microsoft Nt network environments that 
Samba acts as PDC-BDC. Some sites have more than 150 NT workstation. We are 
looking for some stress test to simulate the real situation, like smbtorture. 
But I think that the way to simulate the simutaneuos logon from more than 150 
Workstation is to use the "multi-samba" method. That means, I can register a 
lot of "netbios names - ip interface" on a single machine using different 
smb.confs, then I can use smbclient to connect to the server, simulating a 
netlogon. Do you think that this can go?

Thanks in advance.
