[Samba] Samba as a domain controller for Linux workstations?

[migrator at qualigo.de]

no, you get "roaming profiles" with nfs. just add a line in /etc/fstab for 
each client. or you can do it with smb_mount module from pam with ldap 
access.

hm, about how many clients are we speaking?

if you decide a terminal solution you should be thinking of a good network and 
that the servers can push the complete traffic from the applications.
