Always explore the options.

Linux box to Linux box, it works virtually the same as using a local
hard drive.  I can't remember about Windows to Linux (it was long ago).

Samba, when you use some of the extensions can do apparently native
Linux to Linux behaviour, but I found it far more convoluted than using
NFS.

NFS has security implications, and it's not without reason it got known
as no f*g security.  Samba also has security implications, especially
when people set it up to have none (the same people who drop firewalls,
turn off SELinux, have everything world writeable...).

Brainwashing...  Or, given no choice, they just go with the flow.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
