This is the client VFS module for the Common Internet File System

(CIFS) protocol which is the successor to the Server Message Block
|
|

(SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early

PC operating systems. 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.

|

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. Even if this support
|
|
||||||
is enabled in the kernel build, LANMAN authentication will not be
|
|
||||||
used automatically. 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. This support is disabled by
|
|
||||||
default in order to reduce the possibility of a downgrade
|
|
||||||
attack.
