NFS Samba gateway

[sundar narayanasamy]

Hi George,

I don't want to install Samba on any Unix system. I want o install Samba on a 
Linux box and mount NFS shares from Unix to Linux and share the Linux as 
samba to Win2k systems. That is, between unix servers and Windows 2000 Pro 
clients there is only one Linux box NFS Gateway.

I don't mind having even a commercial solution. There should be a product 
that all ready does this.

Sundar

Ps. We went through Win2K migration and realized some of the production 
systems cannot work with NFS clients.
