We are actively working on this and recently fixed a few bugs. We are testing the patches and they will be upstream after that.(estimating it to be fairly tested in 2 weeks). Here is a quick overview of the new integration method ---------------------- Windows Client ---------------------- || || ---------------------- SAMBA (version 3.6) V VFS PLUGIN (it a samba vfs plugin, samba allows you to write plugin which becomes recipient for calls which were originally supposed to go to VFS layer. It is activated on per-share basis.) V GFAPI --------------------- || || ---------------------- GLUSTERFSD --------------------- Legend: -------: Boundaries of a box/node || : Network path V : Data transfer in both direction in same box Change regarding usage is you need to have gluster shares defined in smb.conf in this way. The entry should look like [gluster-volname] comment = For samba export of volume <volname> vfs objects = glusterfs glusterfs:volume = <volname> path = / read only =no guest ok = yes We will upload the detailed user-guide and other documentation soon.
