These are the words our technical guru used to describe Nexenta's delivery of a fix for CIFS bug: CR 6764696. Only one other detail remained - that was doing the Domain join using a newly created ID with full rights over a pre-created computer container for the server. Why the OU admin ID, which creates this new id can't do the join is a mystery that maybe Nexenta will reveal.
So, congratulations and deep thanks go to Nexenta for this fix.
I didn't explain the last-second allusion though. And it was this. I had given our technical team one week more to look for solutions among the SAMBA and SUN CIFS server options. This morning, in about one hour, we are having a meeting (called by my boss) which is scheduled to discuss what we would do given failure......the options here were ugly.
