So why not the built-in CIFS support in OpenSolaris? Probably has a
similar issue, but still.
In my case, it’s at least two reasons:
* Crossing mountpoints requires separate shares - Samba can share an
entire hierarchy regardless of ZFS filesystems beneath the sharepoint.
* LDAP integration - the in-kernel CIFS only supports real AD (LDAP
+krb5) for directory binding otherwise all users must have a
separately managed local system accounts.
Until these features are available via the in-kernel CIFS
implementation, I’m forced to stick with Samba for our CIFS needs.
cheers,
