[OpenIndiana-discuss] sharesmb and sharenfs on rpool error

[James Blachly]

With the latest OI (20161030 IIRC) when I try to set the sharesmb or sharenfs property to “on” for my home directory (rpool/export/home/james), I get an error that the dataset does not exist. However, the command successfully completes, and, after getting /var/smb/smbpasswd set up correctly (this is a topic for another day, sigh), the share works correctly. Likewise, I get the same error when setting sharenfs=on.

Why the error? Is it because of the non default mountpoint?

Kind regards
James
