Hi Tim, We've actually been having issues with ceph snapshots working on Ubuntu 20, as well as Rocky Linux 8 currently, using the vfs ceph_snapshots module at least. On Ubuntu the snapshots don't appear at all, and on Rocky Linux they do appear but they are all empty. It's one of those thing's we've gotten working before but haven't used in a while so need to relearn unfortunately. We are currently looking into it so if we figure something out I will reach back out and let you know.

I didn't have much luck with this myself, on Ubuntu 20.04+22.04 and Ceph Octopus (since upgraded to Pacific). Just wondering if you could share the config you used for that, and anything notable about your configuration such as OS+Samba versions. Thanks, Tim.
