similar files reside (usually /sbin). Although the helper software is not
required, mount.cifs is recommended. Eventually the Samba 3.0 utility program
"net" may also be helpful since it may someday provide easier mount syntax for
-users who are used to Windows e.g. net use <mount point> <UNC name or cifs URL>
+users who are used to Windows e.g.
+ net use <mount point> <UNC name or cifs URL>
Note that running the Winbind pam/nss module (logon service) on all of your
Linux clients is useful in mapping Uids and Gids consistently across the
domain to the proper network user. The mount.cifs mount helper can be
the CIFS session.

installed, the user will be prompted for password

can be enabled by specifying file_mode and dir_mode on
the client. Note that the mount.cifs helper must be
at version 1.10 or higher to support specifying the uid
- (or gid) in non-numberic form.
+ (or gid) in non-numeric form.
gid Set the default gid for inodes (similar to above).
file_mode If CIFS Unix extensions are not supported by the server
this overrides the default mode for file inodes.
acl Allow setfacl and getfacl to manage posix ACLs if server
supports them. (default)
noacl Do not allow setfacl and getfacl calls on this mount
- user_xattr Allow getting and setting user xattrs as OS/2 EAs (extended
- attributes) to the server (default) e.g. via setfattr
- and getfattr utilities.
+ user_xattr Allow getting and setting user xattrs (those attributes whose
+ name begins with "user." or "os2.") as OS/2 EAs (extended
+ attributes) to the server. This allows support of the

nouser_xattr Do not allow getfattr/setfattr to get/set/list xattrs
mapchars Translate six of the seven reserved characters (not backslash)
*?<>|:
nomapchars Do not translate any of these seven characters (default).
nocase Request case insensitive path name matching (case
sensitive is the default if the server suports it).
+ (mount option "ignorecase" is identical to "nocase")
posixpaths If CIFS Unix extensions are supported, attempt to
negotiate posix path name support which allows certain
characters forbidden in typical CIFS filenames, without
ntlmv2i Use NTLMv2 password hashing with packet signing
lanman (if configured in kernel config) use older
lanman hash
+hard Retry file operations if server is not responding
+soft Limit retries to unresponsive servers (usually only

The mount.cifs mount helper also accepts a few mount options before -o
including:
must use NTLM 0x02002
may use NTLMv2 0x00004
must use NTLMv2 0x04004
- may use Kerberos security (not implemented yet) 0x00008
- must use Kerberos (not implemented yet) 0x08008
+ may use Kerberos security 0x00008
+ must use Kerberos 0x08008
may use lanman (weak) password hash 0x00010
must use lanman password hash 0x10010
may use plaintext passwords 0x00020
Also note that "cat /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData" will display information about
the active sessions and the shares that are mounted.

A Partial List of Missing Features
==================================
c) Better pam/winbind integration (e.g. to handle uid mapping
better)
-d) Verify that Kerberos signing works
-
-e) Cleanup now unneeded SessSetup code in
+d) Cleanup now unneeded SessSetup code in
fs/cifs/connect.c and add back in NTLMSSP code if any servers
need it
-f) MD5-HMAC signing SMB PDUs when SPNEGO style SessionSetup
-used (Kerberos or NTLMSSP). Signing alreadyimplemented for NTLM
-and raw NTLMSSP already. This is important when enabling
-extended security and mounting to Windows 2003 Servers
+e) ms-dfs and ms-dfs host name resolution cleanup
+
+f) fix NTLMv2 signing when two mounts with different users to same
+server.
g) Directory entry caching relies on a 1 second timer, rather than
using FindNotify or equivalent. - (started)
