[Samba] Samba Restrictions

[timothy.brandrick at barclays.com]

Hi,

I'm hopping you can give me some advice,  I work for a Financial Institute
and we are very interested in implementing Samba as a file server running on
AIX 5.3.  Before we can think about implementing this we need to no if Samba
has any limitation on number of folders, files and shares.  The current file
storage system is running on Windows 2003 server and has somewhere in the
region of 51,000 folders and 450,000 files taking up 200GB would samba be
able to cope with this?

Your feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks
Tim
