For Opensolaris, Solaris CIFS != samba. Solaris now has a native in kernel
CIFS server which has nothing to do with samba. Apart from having it's
commands start with smb, which can be confusing.
We're currently using the Sun bundled Samba to provide CIFS access to our
ZFS user/group directories.
So why not the built-in CIFS support in OpenSolaris? Probably has a
similar issue, but still.
I found a bug in active directory integration mode, where if a user is in

I wouldn't think it has this same issue; presumably it won't support more
than the kernel limit of 32 groups, but I can't imagine that in the case

Regarding Solaris 10, my understanding was that the current 32 group limit
could only be changed by modifying internal kernel structures that would
break backwards compatibility, which wouldn't happen because Solaris
guarantees backwards binary compatibility. I could most definitely be
mistaken

That's not entirely true; the issue is similar having more than 16 groups
as it breaks AUTH_SYS over-the-wire authentication but we already have
that now.

For now, we're aiming for 1024 groups but also make sure that the

Ah. No. If you're using idmap and are mapping to an AD server, the
windows SIDs (which are both users and groups) are stored in a cred
struct (in cr_ksid) which allows more than 32 groups, up to 64k iirc.
Ah, yes, I neglected to consider that given the

Evidently the samba engineering group is in Prague. I don't know if it is a

In my case, it’s at least two reasons:
