We are trying to take advantage of Netboot imaging in addition to our Target Mode imaging, and we would like to use a Windows Server as our file share. It has been brought to my attention that imaging can not be done over SMB so is there any way to set up AFP on a Windows file share, or does anyone know of any other trick to get this to work?

Imaging is fine with SMB as the distribution point. Netboot would either need to a linux VM or a Mac server.

Imaging with a Windows SMB is fine. We use only SMB to image (Windows Server 2012R2).
