Readme updated today:
This repository is no longer actively maintained.
The TrueNAS build system previously hosted here has been moved to an internal infrastructure. This transition was necessary to meet new security requirements, including support for Secure Boot and related platform integrity features that require tighter control over the build and signing pipeline.
No further updates, pull requests, or issues will be accepted. Existing content is preserved here for historical reference only.

Wondering if this is just the first step towards doing a minio in the future.
Been running my own storage boxes off of rocky w/ zfs, samba and nfs for years simply for the ease of integration of samba + freeipa.
Especially being able to use ipasam.so to allow password authentication for shares on machines that aren’t easy/reasonable to use kerberos keytabs from (think android clients, and off domain boxes)
Plus last time I tried truenas you couldn’t use a keyfile to encrypt drives unless it was stored on the root dataset which for some reason couldn’t be encrypted. Meaning each array had to have its own password instead.
I won’t lie I had to write several wiki articles to document this lol.
