The CIFS protocol is fully supported by - file servers such as Windows 2000 (including Windows 2003, NT 4 - and Windows XP) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS - server support for Linux and many other operating systems). Limited - support for OS/2 and Windows ME and similar servers is provided as - well. - - The cifs module provides an advanced network file system - client for mounting to CIFS compliant servers. It includes - support for DFS (hierarchical name space), secure per-user - session establishment via Kerberos or NTLM or NTLMv2, - safe distributed caching (oplock), optional packet - signing, Unicode and other internationalization improvements. - If you need to mount to Samba or Windows from this machine, say Y. - -config CIFS_STATS - bool "CIFS statistics" - depends on CIFS - help - Enabling this option will cause statistics for each server share - mounted by the cifs client to be displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/Stats - -config CIFS_STATS2 - bool "Extended statistics" - depends on CIFS_STATS - help - Enabling this option will allow more detailed statistics on SMB - request timing to be displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData and also - allow optional logging of slow responses to dmesg (depending on the - value of /proc/fs/cifs/cifsFYI, see fs/cifs/README for more details). - These additional statistics may have a minor effect on performance - and memory utilization. - - Unless you are a developer or are doing network performance analysis - or tuning, say N. - -config CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH - bool "Support legacy servers which use weaker LANMAN security" - depends on CIFS - help - Modern CIFS servers including Samba and most Windows versions - (since 1997) support stronger NTLM (and even NTLMv2 and Kerberos) - security mechanisms. These hash the password more securely - than the mechanisms used in the older LANMAN version of the - SMB protocol but LANMAN based authentication is needed to - establish sessions with some old SMB servers. - - Enabling this option allows the cifs module to mount to older - LANMAN based servers such as OS/2 and Windows 95, but such - mounts may be less secure than mounts using NTLM or more recent - security mechanisms if you are on a public network. Unless you - have a need to access old SMB servers (and are on a private - network) you probably want to say N.

At runtime LANMAN mounts are disabled but - can be set to required (or optional) either in - /proc/fs/cifs (see fs/cifs/README for more detail) or via an - option on the mount command.

CIFS maps the name of - extended attributes beginning with the user namespace prefix - to SMB/CIFS EAs. EAs are stored on Windows servers without the - user namespace prefix, but their names are seen by Linux cifs clients - prefaced by the user namespace prefix. The system namespace - (used by some filesystems to store ACLs) is not supported at - this time. - - If unsure, say N. - -config CIFS_POSIX - bool "CIFS POSIX Extensions" - depends on CIFS_XATTR - help - Enabling this option will cause the cifs client to attempt to - negotiate a newer dialect with servers, such as Samba 3.0.5 - or later, that optionally can handle more POSIX like (rather - than Windows like) file behavior. It also enables - support for POSIX ACLs (getfacl and setfacl) to servers - (such as Samba 3.10 and later) which can negotiate - CIFS POSIX ACL support. If unsure, say N. - -config CIFS_DEBUG2 - bool "Enable additional CIFS debugging routines" - depends on CIFS - help - Enabling this option adds a few more debugging routines - to the cifs code which slightly increases the size of - the cifs module and can cause additional logging of debug - messages in some error paths, slowing performance. This - option can be turned off unless you are debugging - cifs problems. If unsure, say N. - -config CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL - bool "CIFS Experimental Features (EXPERIMENTAL)" - depends on CIFS && EXPERIMENTAL - help - Enables cifs features under testing. These features are - experimental and currently include DFS support and directory - change notification ie fcntl(F_DNOTIFY), as well as the upcall - mechanism which will be used for Kerberos session negotiation - and uid remapping. Some of these features also may depend on - setting a value of 1 to the pseudo-file /proc/fs/cifs/Experimental - (which is disabled by default). See the file fs/cifs/README - for more details.
