Why not? Postgresql is a rdbms and smb a protocol to share files with
other computers. You connect to postgresql with odbc of with the
postgresql-clients (think psql on Unix). So I don't see any problems,
except when you expect to access the postgresql-files directly through
smb like ms-access does. Proberly there is no problem or you haven't
tolled us everything :)

Tengo a mi cargo una red local compuesta de un dominio con alrededor de 50 máquinas Win98, mas unos 70 usuarios mas distribuídos en 6 sub-redes. Todos son clientes de dos servidores corriendo ambos SuSE 7 y Samba 2.2.1a, en ambos casos como PDC, pero además, uno de ellos corre PostgreSQL 7.1 con una Base de Datos que actualmente tiene unos 9 GB de info en alrededor de 30 tablas, cada una con cerca del millón de registros. Hace ya casi un año que funciona el sistema, pese a varias actualizaciones, y nunca tuve siquiera que reiniciar ninguno de los servidores. Contesta eso tu pregunta ? Espero haberte sido de utilidad.

Dear Dong:
I wrote you past friday abouth your question,
but, so sorry !
I did it in spanish, I didn´t mean it.
I will try to reproduce it in english, wich is not my
languaje:
I manage a net with two servers SuSE Linux 7 - Samba
2.2.1a - PostgreSQL 7.1,
both servers (as PDC) support one principal domain with
around 50 clients
and 6 sub-nets with others 70 clients -till now and
growing every day-.
So, Samba give access and files service to around 120
win98 clients at day,
and every one of they have access to PostgreSQL DB
service across a large
intranet, with DataBase with more than 9 GB of info, in
many tables with
around 1.000.000 reg. every one.
We have almost one year working with this system
WITHOUT A PROBLEM, and
without even reset the servers, not even when we had
periodically to actualize
the programs to pass from a version to another (like
samba 2.0.7 till 2.2.1a),
most times we did it "in hot", switching the titular of
service between both
servers from one to another alternativelly.
I've tested insistently the system with few non
ortodoxes method, like control
response time compareing it with a AS400 running DB2,
and the Linux-Samba-PostgreSQL
system every time is winning, even when this servers -
off courses- count with much less
hardware resources.
I hope you can understand poor english response and
this be aproppiate to you.
