[Samba] Share names

I have a couple of samba servers set up.  Both are for the domain SCHOOL 
(using LDAP for a kind of PDC/BDC).  Is it ok to have the same share 
name in each of the smb.conf?

Two servers  SERVER1  SERVER2
Both servers have a directory /DATA
Can I have:

[data]
     path = /DATA

In the smb.conf on both servers?  I assume this is ok, but want to make 
sure.  I then can map drives to either:

\\SERVER1\DATA
and
\\SERVER2\DATA

I just wanted to make sure there will be no problems with the two 
servers having the same share name.

Thanks.
