Accesing Kadalu Storage Pools on Samba (tested both on source & using packages on ubuntu 22.04)

Install kadalu-storage, samba, samba-vfs-modules smbclient
Create a Kadalu Storage Pool
Append below at EOF for /etc/samba/smb.conf
```
[myshare]
 path = /
 vfs objects = glusterfs
 glusterfs: volume = pool1
 glusterfs: volfile_server = fc5f92df48f7:49252
 browseable = yes
 read only = yes
 guest ok = yes
```
Where volume is name of storage-pool & volfile_server is name:port of any one of the volfile servers in kadalu-storage, which can be found through kadalu pool list --status --detail
Restart samba daemon
```
systemctl restart smbd
```
Access kadalu-storage pool through samba client to check if it is good for export in Windows etc.
```
smbclient //<samba-server-ip>/<shared-folder>
```
Here:
```
smbclient //fc5f92df48f7/myshare
```
