Yes, I'd love this! A lot of companies want samba for simple file access from windows/mac clients. I know quite some companies that buy netapp as 'easy smb storage'. Having ceph do built-in (or bolt-on) samba instead of having to manage external samba clusters would be nice, and would make

I think this is fantastic. Looking forward to the sambaxp talk too! CephFS + SMB is something we make use of very much of, and have had a lot of success working with. It is nice to see it getting some more integration. Regards, Bailey > -Original Message- > From: John Mulligan >
