I don't have samba experiences. Isn't the installation and administration of a
samba server just for one "share" overkill?

Subject: [ceph-users] Ceph and Windows - experiences or suggestions
Hi there!
I got the task to connect a Windows client to our existing ceph cluster.
I'm looking for experiences or suggestions from the community.
There came two possibilities to my mind:
1. iSCSI Target on RBD exported to Windows
2. NFS-Ganesha on CephFS exported to Windows
Is there a third way exporting a ceph cluster to a windows machine?
I have some experiences with CephFS. We have a small cluster
successfully running for linux clients. I don't have experiences with
RBD or iSCSI.
The Windows machine will use the space for backups. The kind of data is
unknown. I expect the data to be a MS-SQL dump and user data from a
sharepoint system. The Windows admin does not care whether NFS or iSCSI
is used.
I'd be happy if some of you could share experiences.
Thanks
Lars
