Works over NFS too. % zfshist /usr/bin/ls History for /usr/bin/ls (/.zfs/snapshot/*/usr/bin/ls): -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 33416 Jul 9 2008 /.zfs/snapshot/install/usr/bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 37612 Nov 21 2008 /.zfs/snapshot/2009-12-07-20:47:58/usr/bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 37612 Nov 21 2008 /.zfs/snapshot/2009-12-01-00:42:30/usr/bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 37612 Nov 21 2008 /.zfs/snapshot/2009-07-17-21:08:45/usr/bin/ls -r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 37612 Nov 21 2008 /.zfs/snapshot/2009-06-03-03:44:34/usr/bin/ls % It's not perfect (e.g., it doesn't properly canonicalize its arguments, so it doesn't handle symlinks and ..s in paths), but it's a start.
