This being the > case, couldn't it also be shared via samba? Samba interracts with the local filesystem via the normal read()/write()/ open()/close() system calls so doesn't care what the underlying filesystem type is. IOW it should work for UFS, or MFS, or FAT32, or ISO9660, or even ext2 partitions. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
