Hello,

AFAIK the FUSE filesystems have in common the problem that they are read
only. I have to write to this share too.

Except at least ntfs-3g which is read + write (see
the link posted yesterday). It is fully compatible
with Windows, which may be useful in a Samba environment.

My idea was a samba VFS that, when it finds a compressed file with a
certain extension ( say .gzvfs ) allows a normal read access to this
file but allows to read and write to other files

For ntfs the compression is transparent. No specific
extension or change needed in applications or scripts.

Regards

Jean-Pierre
