Of course, that is nothing that NFS or Samba couldn't do. 
If you intensely dislike software monopolies  and their 
"right to innovate", you will not use Micros*t technology,
even if it was the only thing on the world. In this case,
there are many available technologies, better or equal to
those of the BSOD peddlers. NFS, Samba, rsync, source control
technologies that have distributed checkout and OpenLDAP
can all do the job. Here is a great paper by Jeremiah Wilton
which shows you how to do that with OpenLDAP:

Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against MS.
At least, I don't have anything efficient.
