Samba 4 ZFS and dos attributes

Hello, as I have annouced my findings here:
viewtopic.php?f=78&t=8340&e=1&view=unread#p51190

I have come to another issue regarding dos attributes. to play simple, I do not recommend on samba4 to run dos attributes due the "unexpecting behaviour" on ZFS when moving files from one dir to another...
This is not an issue on UFS.. so better hands off from dos attrib... BUT...

I have found, that when turned off dos attributes, the "creation time" is not the birth time of the file on UFS. On ZFS the interaction is OK.
I have tested to put
store dos attributes = yes
under share property of UFS... but that does not work...
any expert here how to overcome the issue, since for me (and I guess that for everybody) it is important to know, when the file was created(changed) and when the file was borned over samba/copy...
over shell using stat command I can see the times.. they are but without dos attribs not propagated/converted over samba4

Code: Select all

test: ufs # stat -x test
  File: "test"
  Size: 11169368     FileType: Regular File
  Mode: (0775/-rwxrwxr-x)         Uid: ( 1001/    test)  Gid: ( 1111/   TEST)
