The "kernel mode" CIFS implementation enabled me to access zfs snapshots through the previous versions tab under a windows client machine. (no additional configuration required) That made it very convenient to see all the created snapshots for a certain directory and to roll back to a specific one if need arises. I would like to do the same just with FreeBSD and - i assume - probably Samba4. As this feature is baked into kernel mode cifs i am not sure how to start at achieving the same with freebsd + samba4 and my question was more or less wild guessing that i probably need to create a samba share for a .zfs directory to make it appear under the previuos versions tab on windows but maybe i am totally wrong here, i just wanted to point out that i tried to think about it on my own before bothering you guys^^ Regards Dennis
