Assuming the following: - A server running FreeBSD 10.1 - A ZFS pool with no restrictions on how it can be set up - Clients running Windows XP/Vista/7/8 - The need for a "public share" with two main directories, which we'll call 'stuff' and 'dropbox'. Anonymous guest users have read/write access to 'dropbox', and read-only access to 'stuff' as well as being restricted in which files and directories they can even see there. Admin-class users have full permissions and visibility to both directories. Is installing Samba still a requirement, or is ZFS's built-in SMB sharing complete and robust enough now to be able to handle everything natively? (Alternatively, is SMB itself even still a requirement or are there other options these days (that don't require installing software or custom configs on the clients))?
