[Gluster-users] Samba vfs objects glusterfs is it now working?

[Lalatendu Mohanty]

Hei Deniel,

I was trying out Samba 4.1.3 + Samba vfs plugin+ glusterfs 3.4.2 and 
have hit a bug. I was using packages available in Fedora 20. I think the 
bug might be with vfs plugin which is in Samba 4 tree. Please update the 
bug with your comments if you think your issue is also related to this.

Actually with vfs plugin we don't need to give the actual path. However 
I am not sure if that is causing issue in your case. I use the following 
entries

[testvol]
     comment = For samba share of volume smb-vol-2
     path = /
     read only = No
     guest ok = Yes
     vfs objects = glusterfs
     glusterfs:loglevel = 10
     glusterfs:logfile = /var/log/samba/glusterfs-smb-vol-2.%M.log
     glusterfs:volume = testvol
