SAMBA is universally the same.  and if you read the history of SAMBA, 
you will discover
that it was originally developed due to the can of worms you are going 
to be dealing with
using an NFS client on PCs.  Chameleon went the way of the dinosaur a 
long long time ago. 

So do yourself a favor, and rather than investing  your intellect and 
talents on a dead-end,
give yourself the expertise you need and provide yourself with a body of 
knowledge you
will use over and over again in the future.

Best Regards,
Marty
