NFS is by far simpler to use in pure Linux environment, Samba is for
Windows networks. NFS has no passwords, just install it with apt-get,
and declare /etc/exports in the server, and mount the shares in the

Fine for home environments, but shouldn't an office environment use LDAP for coordinated UID/GID sharing?
