Vanilla Linux is never going to be as fast because of the single binary that is Navaho.
Six formula one cars can get around the Silverstone circuit much quicker than one lorry. A single binary sounds like an odd solution to me.
One of the problems I've found with Linux is the permissions. You **seem** to get far more control using NT permissions. But please tell **me I'm wrong because I'd love to be able to argue losing NT for filing.
Samba supports MS "Access Control Lists". You will need to recompile Samba with the appropriate option, and use a filesystem which supports the additional meta-data, such as XFS. You will also need to use software for backup and restore which includes the meta-data, such as the utilities provided with XFS. The kernel supplied with the retail SuSE8.0 has a slight problem with XFS which was fixed in Mantels tree. I assume that the kernel in the public ftp version of SuSE8.0 has this fix, but do not know for sure.
