My experience with it for a very simple set up has been less than stellar. But also, I was using it on S11, which has it still evolving, and a good part of the issues (not all) were from that evolution and the ever changing syntax.

But seriously, even if it worked perfectly, how useful is it to spend Illumos/OI resources on that? What does IPS do that Samba cannot? Is it worth continuing it without the access that Oracle has to MS documentation and their resources? Why not join forces with Samba and focus on enhancing that experience rather than have a 3rd tool, less popular than Samba and less supported than Solaris CIFS?
