          The following bullet was included in Section 1.1 with http://review.whamcloud.com/#/c/6133/
          "NFS and CIFS export: Lustre files can be re-exported using NFS (via Linux knfsd) or CIFS (via Samba) enabling them to be shared with non-Linux clients, such as Microsoft* Windows* and Apple* Mac OS X*."
          No other mention of Samba is made in the manual.

          Assigning to HPPD triage. This needs to be assigned to a subject expert to create the new section on setting up and tuning Samba on Lustre.

          Very minimal change http://review.whamcloud.com/6133

          We really need a full section to describe how to set up and tune Samba on Lustre, so this bug should be kept open.

          Comment [ sifs and samba - update these sections for now. May want to address in more detail later. ]

          It is still worthwhile to add "Windows" into any section that mentions Samba or CIFS or SMB.
