Complete integration with AD/NTFS from the client perspective. In
other words, the Sun CIFS server really does look like a genuine NTFS
volume shared via CIFS in terms of ACLs. Snapshots even show up as
"previous versions" in explorer.
I have never seen SAMBA provide more than just authentication
integration with AD.
The in kernel CIFS server is also supposed to be much faster,
although I have not tested that yet.
