[Samba] About s3fs in samba4
Reading Whatsnew.txt in samba I understand that If I use s3fs, as it is set by default in the provision step, I won't be able to modify GPOs later, right? So I have a couple of questions: - What's the advantage of using s3fs over ntvfs in new installations? - If I'm planning to deploy a new Domain, probably needing to change GPOs later, should I select ntvfs???

Best regards, Felix If you use s3fs, the only thing you may need to do (first test if it is still necessary it was with the git version a week ago) is to give group Domain Admins, full access to the sysvol share (and recursively all subfolders) from a Windows domain member computer (loged in of course as a member of the Domain Admins group). The major problem with ntvfs is that it isn't actively developed anymore and hasn't received those protocol dialect updates (smb2-3) which were introduced in Vista and 7, and thus it may have compatibility problems later (no known problem exist so far) Regards Geza Gemes -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

This describes the issue and workaround very nicely!
