Is file locking working over CIFS? How about permissions
and ownership? Working as well and easy as it does on NFS?
What kind of problems did you have with NFS - I'm asking,
as I can't think about anything easier than NFS on *nix.

Alexander,
i would say that NFS is the easiest if all of your UID's are the same for every user on the network, there is no reason that you would ever want mount it from the outside, through a packet mangling NAT with your normal permissions, and you have static IP's. that seems to be alot of conditions to me. I personaly would love to NFS+ that had some form of public key auth in it and encryption, yes i know you can do it with SSH tunnles, but still doesn't fix the permissions problem
