When is CIFS and NFS needed?
When is CIFS and NFS needed or used? The only thing I know is that NFS is used if you make backups of the nas over internet.
Thanks for your quick and detailed reply. Funny how MS tends to mess up things, I do know what SMB is :) my memory was a bit weak about CIFS.
Anyway, is it harmless to disable NFS if I don't access the nas from linux or backup over internet?
