zfs set sharesmb=on bucket/Media
worked for a while, but every now and again I wouldn't be able to mount it from any machines on the network, and logging in to the solaris box and doing
sharemgr list
would hang, as would any zfs set things, a reboot would fix that for a while.
So I got sick of that and decided to use SAMBA instead. The tricks with this were to create the config file at
/etc/sfw/samba/smb.conf
stop the zfs sharing:
zfs set sharesmb=off bucket/Media
svcadm disable smb/server
add a password for the relevant user:
smbpasswd -a strageattractor
blah blah
and finally, start the samba server:
svcadm enable samba
Done, and it's been up like this for months now without trouble!
