E.g., how would one mimic:
[office]
comment = office
path = /export/vol1/office
valid users = @office
force group = office
create mode = 660
directory mode = 770
...
We already lost this functionality with the introduction of the NFSv4
ACL crap on ZFS and earned a lot of "hate you" feedbacks. Anyway, most
users and staff switched/switching over to windows (we do not support
Linux yet and Solaris is wrt. desktop at least 5 years behind the scene),
so the last 5% of *x users need to live with it.
However, if we would switch to Solaris CIFS (which AFAIK can not
accomplish, what is required) we would have no friends anymore ...
