What is the difference in the quota API for ZFS ? We need someone to donate quota supporting code for that API and I'll add it for 3.5.0.

I have looked around for the ZFS API, but it appears like Sun hasn't released it; at least not into the wild. Perhaps those in the 'Sun Developer' camp have access to such things. If there is a defined relationship between Sun and samba, perhaps there is a contact that could put this on their todo list or pony up the needed information. Meanwhile, I have submitted a request to Sun, but I wouldn't bet that would come of anything anytime soon. thank you Tom Lieuallen -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

I wish there was. There are some helpful Sun engineers in sustaining engineering, but Sun's relationship to Samba has gotten very frosty since they crammed their Procom-bought CIFS server into the OpenSolaris kernel. It's a shame, Solaris used to be one of our major platforms and could be again if they decided to help third-party developers instead of hindering them with non-third-party available API's etc. Yeah we could just look in the kernel code but they should be making this stuff available in a stable, supported fashion. Oh well, maybe when Oracle cans the Solaris in-kernel server as a nasty security problem then they'll come around :-).
