Greetings,

I hope that someone point me in the right direction as Google
searching is failing me.

I am trying to create a CIFS share containing nested ZFS mountpoints.
For example:

> $zfs list
> NAME                  MOUNTPOINT
> tank/data             /tank/data
> tank/data/archive     /tank/data/archive

> $sharemgr add-share -r data -s /tank/data files

> $sharemgr show -vp
> default nfs=()
> files smb=() nfs=()
>     data=/tank/data
> zfs

Both /tank/data and /tank/data/archive are set to 755 for permissions.
>From Windows XP, the share "data" is visible with one sub-directory
"archive". However that directory is not accessible; any attempt to
view the contents of the directory resunts in an "access denied"
message on the client. Creating a real directory under /tank/data with
permissions set to 755 works fine, the client is able to view the
contents.

This seems like a limitation with CIFS and nested mountpoints. As
several combinations of permissions, and alternatively trying "zfs set
sharesmb=on", does not seem to allow access to the nested mountpoint.

I am hoping there is a setting for smb/service that I am unaware of to
allow traversing into nested mountpoint under CIFS.

Any insights are greatly appreciated,
John
