I am running samba on FreeBSD, and have two servers that are rather heavily used (one is the filestore for a CFD cluster, and the other for a Maya/Muster rendering cluster), each having two em interfaces and SMP -- and have not seen any watchdog issues (they are currently running FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE as of Oct 7 -- but no problems with any earlier 6.1-STABLE versions either). -- greg byshenk - gbyshenk@byshenk.net - Leiden, NL
