Hallo, Dirk,

It may work.
A school in the neighbourhood runs some shares in these ways - a third  
server shares some directories for two other servers and their LANs (NFS  
and Samba).
               |- Server LAN1
               |
    fileserver-|
               |- Server LAN2


One LAN has no problems with mounting per NFS, the other has changed to  
mounting these shares per smbfs (cifs doesn't work ...) because of  
veeery slow data transfer.

Viele Gruesse!
Helmut
