user database integration possible with samba or user mapping possible 
with kCIFS. If you do not need users to logon and get a shell, then 
using kCIFS is sufficient.

ZFS can be provided to Windows Servers via samba daemons or kCIFS. The 
question is whether you need kerberos throughout. If you do, samba is 
the way to go. kCIFS only supports ntlmv2 and no kerberos handshake in 
the smb connection.

Oracle's documentation for kCIFS. samba documentation for samba.
