Feature #20668
Updated by Peter Amstutz 11 months ago
Extremely speculative. To provide high performance remote file system service to Windows, we could implement a bridge that supports SMB file shares. SMB is notoriously complicated. We do not have the resources to write a whole SMB stack. Ideally, we'd like to connect an SMB protocol implementation to our golang filesystem interface (used by keep-web). There is this project, which states it is incomplete and not updated for several years: https://github.com/gentlemanautomaton/smb A better Another option that might be more realistic would be to create a plugin for Samba. It has a VFS layer: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Writing_a_Samba_VFS_Module We can use Go to build shared objects that are callable from C: https://github.com/vladimirvivien/go-cshared-examples The complexity would probably be comparable to what we've done before with the FUSE mount.
