Question Samba & Load Balancing..


Well i've got some question..

I was wandering if someone has setup a samba server
with load balancing..

I want to setup 1 server with 2 (or 3) Network Cards (NIC)
and only 1 netbios name..

it's gonna be a file server over a network, and it should be able
to balance it's output through the 2 NIC 's
so that I have 200Mbit instead of the 100 with 1 nic..
(should be a better preformance for the network)

i found some project's but they are based on ip-forwarding and dns
but samba uses Netbios, wins or broadcast's...

isn't there a way to make some sort of virtual device who does the balancing part... ??
or maybe some one has one working and can share his info with us ??

Greet's
