Ye be warned: It's my idea based on Linux...not Windows). And one other thing I remembered when setting up the DVD server was that Samba only supports file up to 2GB. |
I believe thats a limitation of smbfs in the kernel, only when running a server. Smbclient dosen't use smbfs, so reading and writing to a Windows server backend from a Linux HTPC shouldn't be an issue.
I think from what I've read cifsvfs has replaced smbfs, making the 2GB limitation on Samba servers not a problem.
Never tried it, but this looks neat: http://www.mysettopbox.tv/knoppmyth.html
Windows MC is pretty nice, I'll admit, but it does some funky things on my friends HTPC.
