 15	  This is the client VFS module for the Common Internet File System
 16	  (CIFS) protocol which is the successor to the Server Message Block
 17	  (SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early
 18	  PC operating systems.  The CIFS protocol is fully supported by
 19	  file servers such as Windows 2000 (including Windows 2003, Windows 2008,
 20	  NT 4 and Windows XP) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS
 21	  server support for Linux and many other operating systems). Limited
 22	  support for OS/2 and Windows ME and similar servers is provided as
 23	  well.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 24
 25	  The cifs module provides an advanced network file system
 26	  client for mounting to CIFS compliant servers.  It includes
 27	  support for DFS (hierarchical name space), secure per-user
 28	  session establishment via Kerberos or NTLM or NTLMv2,
 29	  safe distributed caching (oplock), optional packet
 
 30	  signing, Unicode and other internationalization improvements.

 57	help
 58	  Modern CIFS servers including Samba and most Windows versions
 59	  (since 1997) support stronger NTLM (and even NTLMv2 and Kerberos)
 60	  security mechanisms. These hash the password more securely
 61	  than the mechanisms used in the older LANMAN version of the
 62	  SMB protocol but LANMAN based authentication is needed to
 63	  establish sessions with some old SMB servers.
 64
 65	  Enabling this option allows the cifs module to mount to older
 66	  LANMAN based servers such as OS/2 and Windows 95, but such
 67	  mounts may be less secure than mounts using NTLM or more recent
 68	  security mechanisms if you are on a public network.  Unless you
 69	  have a need to access old SMB servers (and are on a private
 70	  network) you probably want to say N.  Even if this support
 71	  is enabled in the kernel build, LANMAN authentication will not be
 72	  used automatically. At runtime LANMAN mounts are disabled but
 73	  can be set to required (or optional) either in
 74	  /proc/fs/cifs (see fs/cifs/README for more detail) or via an
 75	  option on the mount command. This support is disabled by
 76	  default in order to reduce the possibility of a downgrade

 22	  This is the client VFS module for the SMB3 family of NAS protocols,

 24	  as well as for earlier dialects such as SMB2.1, SMB2 and the older
 25	  Common Internet File System (CIFS) protocol.  CIFS was the successor
 26	  to the original dialect, the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol, the
 27	  native file sharing mechanism for most early PC operating systems.
 28
 29	  The SMB3 protocol is supported by most modern operating systems
 30	  and NAS appliances (e.g. Samba, Windows 10, Windows Server 2016,
 31	  MacOS) and even in the cloud (e.g. Microsoft Azure).
 32	  The older CIFS protocol was included in Windows NT4, 2000 and XP (and
 33	  later) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS and SMB3
 34	  server support for Linux and many other operating systems). Use of
 35	  dialects older than SMB2.1 is often discouraged on public networks.
 36	  This module also provides limited support for OS/2 and Windows ME
 37	  and similar very old servers.
 38
 39	  This module provides an advanced network file system client
 40	  for mounting to SMB3 (and CIFS) compliant servers.  It includes
 41	  support for DFS (hierarchical name space), secure per-user
 42	  session establishment via Kerberos or NTLM or NTLMv2, RDMA
 43	  (smbdirect), advanced security features, per-share encryption,
