I'm having a permission issue with a ZFS fs over CIFS. I'm new to OpenSolaris, 
and fairly new to *nix (only real experience being OS X), so any help would be 
appreciated.

Ok, here's the problem: I have a zfs fs (rpool/storage) with numerous child 
filesystems (rpool/storage/backup, rpool/storage/software, etc.). My main user, 
jwaddell:staff, can browse and create folders in any filesystem without any 
problem when logged into the desktop. However, when I login via CIFS with the 
same user from a different machine, I can only view/edit files and directories 
in the rpool/storage fs. All child filesystems appear empty through cifs, and 
when I try to copy a file or create folders, I get permission denied errors. I 
have chmod -R 777 on rpool/storage, and chown -R jwaddell on rpool/storage. 
When running ls -l, permissions seem to be correct (output below), so I can't 
figure it out. If I destroy and recreate the child filesystems, the same thing 
happens. On a possibly related note, when I try to delete a file/directory in 
one of the child filesystems from the desktop, I get a "Cannot move file to 
trash, do you want to delete immediately. Unable to trash
  file: No such file or directory" error," but trashing a file anywhere else on 
the system (such as my home folder) works fine. Perhaps this is related to 
whatever permissions issues are going on. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

when browsing via CIFS)
