[OpenIndiana-discuss] CIFS and openindiana

[Daniel Kjar]

The pool I am accessing is just a pool containing home folders and I am 
currently the only user that needs access.  I have had no problems so 
far writing, reading, deleting etc.  I haven't tried to log in to the 
share with other users though.  I should check and see if permissions 
are working correctly.  I have plenty of adjuncts that may want laptop 
access (the users are on sunrays).
