Does anyone have any experience serving files from Linux to Mac
clients (Mac OS X 10.4 and up)? I'm wondering if I should use samba,
netatalk or NFS -- specifically which one is "better" for Mac clients.
AFAICT Macs can handle all three.
The only must-have requirements are clicky-clicky ease of use (for the
client), proper authentication, and the Mac should be able to handle
disconnection/outages of the server gracefully.

Update: Which is worse -- that netatalk requires kernel modules, or
that we [Red Hat] don't compile them in by default in our kernel ?!!
