I'm about to test samba 3.0 (on RH Linux 9.0) as a replacement for our windows NT 4.0 Domain Controller. We already run samba 2.2 on another machine (RH linux 7.3) and that system does all of our fileserving (+1TB).
My question is this: is there anything bad about combining samba as a domain controller and samba as a fileserver? Or should we have a samba DC on one system, and the samba fileserver on a different system? I'm leaning towards seperating the two systems, but I'd like a more concrete reason to do so than a feeling. Any tips or ideas? Does samba 3.0 as a domain controller need a lot of /etc/init.d/smb -stop and -starts? If so, then I don't want to put that on our fileserver.
