Bit Hunter Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I am going to deploy a machine with several Virtual Machines. But i need some sort of file share server in order to have all the files centrelized. I cannot afford more then what i have hands on, which is an old computer. I have been looking at some alternatives. - Samba (So far best resault) - SSHFS (unstable for me) - NFS - FTP - WebDAV Samba seems to be the winner right now...
