All open-zfs come from basically the same source. The communities that use can make decisions on how it operates on their platform. The solaris and opensolaris distros have sharesmb and an in kernel cifs. Maybe try omnios. There is always some additional config, creating user, permissions, etc. My company helps people walk through the differences of the different distros and recommend a platform. Feel free to contact me directly. I also have an open-zfs bootcamp videos series that show the similarities. http://kateleyco.com/?page_id=783 Also you might want to try something like freenas, that has everything you need to turn freebsd into a nas platform. There are also many, for purchase, software packages that do these things for you and include support, ie. cloudbyte, osnexus, nexenta, syneto... linda On 7/6/15 12:40 AM, Quartz wrote: >> No, actually, it isn't. :) It works in a similar manner to sharenfs on >> FreeBSD.
