[OpenIndiana-discuss] CIFS and openindiana

[Guenther Alka]

first, I would not share the pool itself but create a filesystem to 
share ex data:
zfs set sharesmb=on home/data

then you should reset the root pw to create a smb password:
passwd root

now you should be able to connect from Windows as user root
If you want to connect as another user, create this user with a password 
and set ACL of shared folder to allow everyone@ or this user

if you like to do settings not via CLI but a Web-UI, try my napp-it on OI
