Glad you were able to get it working.

That is definitely on my todo list as well.  It should be quite dooable,
but the trick is teaching Samba to read the zfs snapshots.  I've not had
any luck with it yet.  Samba did create a new snapshot module here:
https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages/vfs_shadow_copy2.8.html

I just need to set some time aside to really focus on it.   The trick is
going to be writing something for the "Shadow-format" option for zfs
snapshots that samba understands.  I've even thought about creating
symlinks in the Samba VM in the "Samba format" that point to zfs
snapshots.  That's the clunky way to do it.

I'd be really curious to know if you make any headway with this.

Greg
