Known Limitations

The Solaris CIFS service has the following limitations:

  • Do not use SXCE Build 108 for Solaris CIFS due to known share access problems (CRs 6800211 and 6800942)
  • Do not use SXCE Build 93 for Solaris CIFS due to known problems; the issues have been resolved in SXCE Build 94
  • Using NT Domains is not fully supported.
  • Operating with multiple AD domain controllers is not fully supported.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Use the cifs-chkcfg script to verify the system's Solaris CIFS service configuration. The script reports configuration errors. If the script reports no errors, your configuration should be okay.

    NOTE: The cifs-chkcfg script does not currently verify Kerberos configuration.

    You must run this command as superuser or an appropriate role.

    Download the cifs-chkcfg script.

  • Use the cifs-gendiag script to generate helpful troubleshooting information about your Solaris CIFS environment.

    You must run this command as superuser or an appropriate role.

    You can include output from this command when you report a problem to the [1] discussion list.

    Download the cifs-gendiag script.
