Install the SMB PAM module Add the below line to the end of /etc/pam.conf: other password required pam_smb_passwd.so.1 nowarn Do you know what that is? It's part of the Solaris CIFS server, and its purpose is to permit you to store passwords in a form useful to CIFS. The regular passwords are stored with one-way encryption, and CIFS needs the plain text to encrypt a different way for interoperability. The PAM module sees the password as it is changed, and will store it for CIFS purposes.

You definitely need SUNWsmbskr - the cifs server provided with OpenSolaris is tied to the kernel at some low level.

[zfs-discuss] Confused about prerequisites for ZFS to work
I'm hoping to get some general clues about what all is required to get an experiment going with zfs. I've managed to install osol-11 in a vmware on windowsXP host from a recent *.iso. I'm following along with Simon's blog showing how to set up ZFS. I'm newbie with both ZFS and Solaris but the instructions seem pretty clear. However I'm finding some things the Simon directions at: http://breden.org.uk/2008/03/08/home-fileserver-zfs-setup/ Do, are failing for me. I've added a few extra drives in he vmware and added them to zpool... So cutting to the chase I have a zpool established and up to the point where I make it available to other hosts. Eventually I hope to have a 3 windows machines, 2 linux and 1 solaris machine using the Zfs drives for backup. For now I'm just including 1 linux and 1 windows in my experiment. Going by simons instructions I'm settting up a sbm/cifs share. I see the smbshare is already setup: # zfs get all tank/home/reader |grep smb tank/home/reader sharesmbon local Then I'm told to check and see what name the share is given: # sharemgr show -vp default nfs=() zfs zfs/tank/home/reader smb=() tank_home_reader=/tank/home/reader Ok, then I'm having a problem getting the smb/server running. Here is where I need some kind of brief outline telling what all is needed to get that to happen. When I look at the server, Its said to be in `maintenance mode' # svcs | grep smb online 18:40:45 svc:/network/smb/client:default maintenance23:55:48 svc:/network/smb/server:default I'm not really sure how to use svcadm wisely but I tried to enable it first: svcadm enable -r smb/server svcadm: svc:/milestone/network depends on \ svc:/network/physical, which has multiple instances I'm not sure what that output means... but it doesn't appear to be any kind of error. Still when I look again... its still in maintenance mode. I noticed a special kernel package right next to the smb server called. SUNWsmbskr (smb/server kernel). So does this require a special kernel? A brief roadmap from the point I'm at to running ZFS server, somekind of outline would be really be handy. When looking at the demos etc on line about zfs.. I don't recall seeing anything about a special kernel... or is the smb server not required to allow windows machines to `see' the zfs pool? Also.. I keep seeing mention of a CIFS implementation but all the stuff I see about cifs in the package manager says `client'. So I'm getting a bit confused. ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
