[OpenIndiana-discuss] SMB NFS not sure where to go

[Goetz T. Fischer]

i didn't quite get the reason why you wanna keep using samba instead of nfs but that aside, since this 
is your home server, why not just keeping the indiana version that worked? or at least the samba version 
that worked?
security usually isn't that big of an issue for this purpose.
