Hi, I posted this on cifs-discuss, but got no reply. I''ve just added the CIFs function to some of our ZFS filesystems, so they are now shared via NFS and CIFS We''ve got a lot of Mac users, who can quite happily create files and directories with names containing characters not allowed in Windows, such as \/:*?"| These are blocked by the Windows client, Windows server and Samba server. However, a Mac user can create a file/dir on our solaris CIFS shares containing these characters. The result is, that they can only be accessed from a Mac. Is there anyway to block these characters on a ZFS filesystem on openSolaris? I''m running snv_122 I did find a partial workaround, by setting catia=true in the sharesmb command like: zfs set sharesmb=name=john,catia=true dataPool/john However, this still allows the creation of these characters, just converts them to something Windows can read. Is there a way to stop their creation? Regards John -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
