Thanks for the input.

I really have no need of ACLs. I'd just want anyone to be able to
access who has a password on the OS.

Can you tell me if that simplifies ACLs and what specifically needs to
be set on windows, so that access for any windows user, and any oi
user, is smooth?  

I have visions of entering name and passwd with option of it to be
remembered... (I never use those... but my wife probably would) and
thats it.

Some framework to map any OI or Win user with a password as a
legitimate user would be first rate.

PS- about your cited url:
https://blogs.oracle.com/timthomas/entry/solaris_cifs_in_workgroup_mode

That appears not to be changed since Apr 2008, almost exactly 6 yrs
ago.

It still advocates downloading SUNWsmbs... is that really still
needed?

If not, what else is way out of date?... for example, does windows 8
even understand workgroup terminology.
