Amar,

I'm not quite sure I follow you.  When you say VFS, I think
of Virtual File Systems such as used by the kernel or similar
to the one we use internally to smbd.  It sounds like you
want to have Samba act as a protocol proxy (which is doable).

But until i understand exactly what you want to proxy to, I
can't really comment any more.





cheers, jerry
