Thanks.

I'm waiting for the in kernel sharetab support to be integrated.  Once

That is moving /etc/dfs/sharetab into the kernel, much like /etc/mnttab is.

thats available I can add user level NFS share support.  I would expect

OK - maybe I've missed something on the 15 or so OpenSolaris lists I'm

das"?


That is to allow a non-privileged the ability to perform an NFS share of a ZFS file system. This assumes the user has the necessary dataset permission to allow th operation. For example:

# zfs allow marks share sandbox/fs

marks$ zfs share sandbox/fs
marks$

If 'marks' tries to share sandbox/otherfs, he will receive an error since he doesn't have 'share' permission on that dataset.

marks$ zfs share sandbox/otherfs
cannot share 'sandbox/otherfs': /sandbox/otherfs: no permission
