Hi all,

I am a bit of a lurker. I do not use Solaris at the moment. I returned to 
FreeBSD a while ago (the "OpenSolaris/Oracle" story did it for me..) but 
use ZFS a lot.

So my Solaris knowledge is a bit outdated and blurry (memory fadeout;-)

I am thinking of upgrading my Samba3 server under FreeBSD (and ZFS) and 
use Active Directory.

At the moment there are a few glitches, mainly around ZFS which is not 
using POSIX ACLs but NFSv4 ACLs.

Samba4 is supporting POSIX ACLs as a default [see Linux] but has NFSv4 ACL 
support as well but the module seems to be slightly experimental.

But it all seems to work when you pass a hurdle in the provisioning script 
(samba-tool) which is written in Python. The script lacks NFSv4 ACL 
support if I understand correctly. The workaround is a manual smb.conf 
adjustment after provisioning.

I still hesitate and "go live" with it (and have other projects so the 
delay may be worth-while)

I wonder how Samba4 and AD support looks under Solaris (especially using 
ZFS).

Regards
Peter
