I was currious about setting up load balancing for my company 
fileserver.  This machine get's heavy usage and we would like to load 
balance the traffic over two 1 Gigabit NICS.  How would this be best 
accomplished?  Should we set up a firewall rules that will NAT for that 
machine or does samba have a built in mechinism?
