Been running my own storage boxes off of rocky w/ zfs, samba and nfs for years simply for the ease of integration of samba + freeipa.
Especially being able to use ipasam.so to allow password authentication for shares on machines that aren’t easy/reasonable to use kerberos keytabs from (think android clients, and off domain boxes)
Plus last time I tried truenas you couldn’t use a keyfile to encrypt drives unless it was stored on the root dataset which for some reason couldn’t be encrypted. Meaning each array had to have its own password instead.
I won’t lie I had to write several wiki articles to document this lol.





Can I just type ‘roxorz boxorz’ and be done with it.
