Before you reply note I have read the op-locks bit of the samba manual We have a micro-focus Cobol (dos) database that ran on an old Novell server. When we moved to NT4 performance bombed. We added the correct registry keys to turn off op-locks on the NT4 server and all was OK for the next 6 years

Most Distro's come with a SAMBA binary. Is suggest that you start with that. There are clear minimum config suggestions in the documentation (your distro often has a default config (see /etc/samba/smb.conf). Mac OS X should be able to use NFS so should not need SAMBA as this is a Unix2Unix setup

In the old NT4 model I think it was up to the client to decide who to send the authentication request to. I also seem to remember the BDC was preferred over the PDC as it was assumed the BDC would have less load. In short I think the clients get to choose based on what they can see in the network

Name resolution for windows machines is by WINS or Broadcast. Broadcast is not going to like the firewall. Wins could be configured if you look up the ports to allow and run the SAMBA wins server on the linux machine. My only question is what do you not trust on your local network (why the firewall

A windows machine will try the current logged on user's credentials against any share thrown at it (often with-out domain or workgroup checks). It can do this because only one active logged on user is permitted at any one time and the SMB protocol is it's native protocol. Linux can have multiple ac
