I offered to go with Linus to Sao Paulo zoo once to help him avoid having to meet Lula, the president of Brasil which he really didn't want to do
There are companies who do "pay for play" Samba development. You pay 'em and tell them what you want in Samba, and they'll write it and upstream it for you.
Might be more than you want to pay though.
Samba does implement DFS, I wrote lots of the code for it and updated it recently
I think you mean it doesn't implement DFS replication in the same way that Windows does.
Samba is only configured one way, via the smb.conf file.
Runtime control can be done via smbcontrol, but the base config file is always smb.conf.
When using local uses passwords *must* be separate as the SMB protocol and Linux passwords use completely different crypto.
Of course if you want synchronised passwords just add the Linux machine into the Active Directory Domain using Samba's winbind and users and passwords are identical of course.
Samba with an the iouring backend is as performant as an in-kernel version.
See Metze's talk this week at SNIA SDC 2023 in Freemont, CA. for details:
This is completely incorrect.
Microsoft do not concern themselves with what SMB versions Samba supports when considering maintenance. At all.
As it should be IMHO. We match current versions of Windows and only keep SMB1 around in an "off-by-default" state for customers who can't or won't update old Windows / DOS clients.
Just to add, for this reason I'm only helping out with the C coding, not leading the effort
It's a fair cop
Yeah, it's important for customers though.
