  	help
  	  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.
  	  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.  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.
  
  	  If unsure, say N.

  	bool "Kerberos/SPNEGO advanced session setup"
  	depends on CIFS && KEYS
  	select DNS_RESOLVER
  	help
  	  Enables an upcall mechanism for CIFS which accesses userspace helper
  	  utilities to provide SPNEGO packaged (RFC 4178) Kerberos tickets
  	  which are needed to mount to certain secure servers (for which more
  	  secure Kerberos authentication is required). If unsure, say N.

  config CIFS_XATTR
          bool "CIFS extended attributes"
          depends on CIFS
          help
            Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
            the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit
            <http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details).  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.

  	    Distributed File System (DFS) support is used to access shares
  	    transparently in an enterprise name space, even if the share
  	    moves to a different server.  This feature also enables
  	    an upcall mechanism for CIFS which contacts userspace helper
  	    utilities to provide server name resolution (host names to
  	    IP addresses) which is needed for implicit mounts of DFS junction
  	    points. If unsure, say N.
