I've set up my FreeNAS server to share the dataset through AFP. I've also set the property snapdir to visible for that dataset through zfs set snapdir=visible MyPool/temp (for example).
When I use OS X's Finder application to navigate to .zfs/snapshot/<snapshot name>/<Some Folder In the Dataset>, I somehow get redirected to the current version of that folder.
For example, assume the share is called temp_afp and the folder is called Downloads, then when I browse to /Volumes/temp_afp/.zfs/snapshot/auto-20150218.0900-1w/Downloads, I get redirected to /Volumes/temp_afp/Downloads instead.
Even when I use the Terminal application and 'cd' to the aforementioned example, I sometimes see the current status instead of the actual snapshot status.
The only true way to get to the old data from the snapshot is to ssh to the FreeNAS server and navigate to the snapshot folder.
Not sure if this AFP-related, OS X Yosemite-related or just a bug in zfs?
I have this issue with all my FreeNAS 9.3 servers (two).

Joris
