Hi folks,

I have got a similar setup with NC-machines (still using Windows NT4). 
The samba server lives in a small and cheap mini-PC, as the main servers 
are in another location. In case of connection failure to the main 
servers, the local samba server continues to serve the machine group. 
The machine group network is completely isolated with its own router 
with a firewall (MikroTik), and access to the local samba server is 
limited to a couple of IP-addresses in the main production network.

Best regards,

Peter
