Hi all,

I'm putting together a script to create zfs snapshots after a backup has been 
completed (via Apple TimeMachine or rsync for example). When I'm logged into 
the machine, I can only access the "zfs snapshot" command as root via "sudo" or 
"pfexec". Neither of these are available directly from a ssh command. For 
example:

client$ ssh user@server
server$ sudo zfs snapshot blah@blah -> works
..or..
server$ pfexec zfs snapshot blah@blah -> works

..but..

client$ ssh user@host zfs snapshot blah -> fails = permission denied
client$ ssh user@host pfexec zfs snapshot blah -> fails = permission denied
client$ ssh user@host sudo zfs snapshot blah -> fails = sudo: no tty present 
and no askpass program specified

What would be the best practice for creating a zfs snapshot based on an 
external trigger (eg: message from client after a successful backup).


Regards,
Matt
