If you just want to access small files sometimes then right. or have high speed connections, then SAMBA and NFS is right tool. if you want 1000 users to have their "home" directories always on their computers but with copy kept centrally, then it would be best to keep it locally and run rsync (for unix users) or syncback under windoze to just synchronize it every day after work. If you need some shared directories but where one person changes data and other reads - then still that solution is great. But if you don't have fast links, operate on directories shared between users where more than one have to write, then something more complex is needed.
