Hi All,

A customer is thinking of having me build him a
file server.  He has 3 windows 10 workstation
that all need to see that same YUGE drawing files.
Plus backup would be nice.

So since I am allergic to Windows servers (the make me
say "bad" words), I thought of a FC29 Samba server.

Then it occurred to me, why not put the shoe on
the other foot.  If there is an NFS client for
Windows, why not use NFS?  Any benefit of using
NFS over CIFS on this scenario?

You thoughts?

Not the part you were really asking about, but you did want any
thoughts, so I note that "customer" suggests that CentOS might be a
better choice then Fedora. You want to build him something that works
and is also stable.


RHEL and Clones are a nightmare.  Here is a good example:

This one of mine and it was "ignored" by Red Hat:

7.2 not compatible with C236 and RSTe motherboard
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1353423

Cost me over a U$D 1000 to figure it out.

Fedora is a Kaisen (constant improvement) OS.  RHEL is an
Anti-Kaisen by design OS.
