Re-exporting NFS filesystem in Samba

[Roberto Köhler]

Hello.

I am running Samba 2.0.0 for AIX 4.3. When I share a local filesystem,
the response time of Samba shares is OK, close enought in our network to
NFS mounted fs. But when I share a NFS mounted filesystem (mounted from
another AIX 3.2.5 host), the Samba response time for file reads if very
poor, 3 to 4 times larger than NFS mounted fs in the PC. it doesn't
matter the file size, neither the number of files in the fs.

Has anyone got such a problem ?

TIA,
