5) Use datasets for your samba shares, and set up snapshot tasks for them. FreeNAS will auotmagically configure samba to pass through the ZFS snapshots to samba. Windows will then activate the previous versions feature, available if you right click properties for any file or directory.
Can you explain the connection between the zfs snapshots and the previous versions again please? I'm struggling to understand that sentence as I don'T understand the connection but it sounds intriguing :-/
