NFS works great if you manually set it up. Populate the hosts and fstab files and NFS is rock solid.
MPM used NFS at the beginning. Rock Solid. No maintenance. As we grew we "progressed" to Novell. Worked well if you rebooted 2 times a week. We had around 25 computers and users. Then we "progressed" to Active Directory. Worked well as long as IT did daily maintenance. SMB is working a lot better now that Windows is working on a Linux kernel to run Windows on top of. Imagine that. Maybe we will return to rock solid networking like NFS (on more than a very few computers).
