[OpenIndiana-discuss] Accessing smb shares from windows

[Harry Putnam]

Maybe someone can offer a brief outline of how one is to access shares
on an OI machine from windows 7 based hosts?

The share has sharesmb on and named but I'm not able to access it from
windows 7.  Entering the username and passwd of shares owner into the
dialog offered by windows 7 file explorer just fails with no helpful
comments. 
   zfs get sharesmb p1/projects/reader
  NAME                PROPERTY  VALUE         SOURCE
  p1/projects/reader  sharesmb  name=preader  local

Nothing at all in the smb server log that is helpful. The last entries
there are from OS start up several days ago:
 /var/svc/log/network-smb-server:default.log

Permissions on the directory (reader) I'm trying to access:
drwxr-sr-x 16 reader nfsu 17 2013-09-21 22:43 reader

None of the other properties (besides sharesmb) as revealed by `get
all' appear to have any bearing on remote access.

There is no chance at all that I'm just entering the uid passwd wrong.
They are simple and I use them everyday.
