[OmniOS-discuss] CIFS with OmniOS

Any documentation on getting a CIFS share working with OmniOS? All I'm finding on the web is Solaris11, which has some key things that OmniOS doesn't in smbadm, so the instructions fall apart rather early. (Tried this also, but many stale links:

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] kayak problems

Yes, it is missing a few key libraries, I reported that in a similar email back around december but it seems to have gone unfixed in the interim. If you find my posts, it indicates the things that I found and fixed. Luckily, it is easy to uncompress, mount and fix the miniroot with the missing

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] strange io-pattern

[OmniOS-discuss] missing shared libraries prevent automatic installation in release 1008

This may be AMD64 specific. I haven't checked in depth, but the following missing libraries (from miniroot.gz) prevent a successful pxe installation. Most of them are related to zfs either in creating the filesystem or in the implicit execution of share at the end of creating rootfs. In most cases
