Child mounts are still not supported and as of this moment it is not in our road map either.
We will have support for standalone DFS namespaces by the end of calendar year. This could indirectly solve your problem. Afshin Thomas Fili wrote:
Hi, as i wrote before, i play around with build 124 and cifs .. My goal is to change our primary fileserver from samba 3.0.34 (b111b) to cifs service ... After solved some problems with idmap ( thanks jordan) i want to rebuild our filesystem structure on the test-system when i recognize cifs is unable to share multible filesystems under a single sharepoint. I searched the forum and found some threads about this subject ... all from 2008 And now i want to ask, if there any news about this ??? And the RFE "6582165 Child Mounts" seems to be older than 1 year ... For us this is important ... because i created many filesystems ;) A lot of these filesystems has different snapshot intervals or different settings for aclinherit and aclmode or other ZFS proberties ... And for example each home-directory is a different filesystem ... Sharing this structure with NFSv4 and Samba works fine ! The behavoior from NFS is similar to CIFS (showmount -e server showing all exported filesystems) but i can mount the "root" export and access all subjacent filesystems ... It would be enough for us cifs accting in the same way ... Or maybe there is another solution ?
