Subject: PSARC 2009/534 - SMB/CIFS Standalone DFS
To: PSARC-ext at sun.com
I'm sponsoring the following for fast track approval. The timer
expires 14 October 2009.
...
STANDALONE NAMESPACES IN SOLARIS
...
Only one standalone DFS namespace is supported per system.
Multiple DFS namespace support will be available in a future
project based on Active Directory (AD) domain-based DFS
namespaces. Once domain-based namespaces are supported, the
CIFS Service will also support multiple standalone DFS
namespaces - these are tied together by the DFS support level
that is announced by a server.
When I saw "per system" above, it made me wonder about zones.
So, could you say a a bit about how zones interact with this feature
(and what changes you anticipate when AD support is added)?
