If you wanted to go into home/joeuser/.snapshot , I think you'd have to look at home/.snapshot/joeuser. I think the way the .snapshot dir works is similar to if the user looks at $VOL_ROOT/home/user1/files/.snapshot, the directory is "magically" directed to $VOL_ROOT/.snapshot/home/user1/files > To make this work in ZFS, does this require that the mv(1) > command only work when the user has snapshot delete privilege? No, because the snapshots don't exist for each directory. The path is internally redirected to the volume's snapshot list, but starting at the current directory. > I fear that nothing in this thread is moving the problem closer to > RFE status :-( That's a shame, the "secret" .snapshot directories are really nice to have. If FUSE was ready, it'd be trivial to work up a POC on top of zfs. -B -- Brandon High : bh...@freaks.com _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
