Hello, I'm curious if you are referring to the smb service: https://docs.ceph.com/en/squid/cephadm/services/smb/ ? If so, I'd like to mention that the service is mainly designed to support the smb mgr module - but that module won't be available until tentacle. The service itself can be used directly but it's a bit low-level and expects you to provide configuration urls (rados or http(s)) that point to the configuration files for the samba-containers [1] / sambacc projects [2]. It's all doable but its not nearly as user friendly as the mgr module is designed to be. If you do give it a try I'd like to hear how well it goes for you. Thanks! -- John M.
