Hi Jeffrey,

Our problem is the lack of performance and reliability of CIFS/SMB across VPN, 
I found openAFS and I thought that it would be worth to giving it a chance.
As some windows applications must run in the server, moving it to linux is not 
an option. Installing a virtualized linux machine in the server could be an 
option. But it will add levels of complexity to the system, and I would not 
lilke that.

                                               
As some people suggested, going to payed support could help the project. But I 
doubt my directors will approve budget for something doesn't works in windows 
from the start.

I tried windows NFS, but it seems that windows clients with windows server 
doesn't work as well as Windows-Linux.

Any idea of how could improve the communications with a reliable 
service/protocol?

Thanks,
Isaac

Hi Isaac,

Is running a non-windows openafs server a deal-breaker? If you specify
your requirements, then perhaps, we can suggest what might work?

Sincerely,
Jason
