Yea although CentOS 5 can be ran with 128 I promise you want be happy
with it. I think in my initial post to you I neglected to include I
have clamav-samba running also. All my media files I had to confiigure
the cifs shares for clam-av to not scan them. i do come to find out I
have a lil more than 256MB of ram but not by much. I do have every
service I do not need cut off. Also mine swaps also. You should get
better spped than what your getting. I can't get no more than 10MB/s.
My smb global config may help some.
