^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  2) Introduction
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  3) ============
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  4) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  5)   This is the client VFS module for the SMB3 NAS protocol as well
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  6)   as for older dialects such as the Common Internet File System (CIFS)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  7)   protocol which was the successor to the Server Message Block
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  8)   (SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  9)   PC operating systems. New and improved versions of CIFS are now
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 10)   called SMB2 and SMB3. Use of SMB3 (and later, including SMB3.1.1)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 11)   is strongly preferred over using older dialects like CIFS due to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 12)   security reaasons. All modern dialects, including the most recent,
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 13)   SMB3.1.1 are supported by the CIFS VFS module. The SMB3 protocol
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 14)   is implemented and supported by all major file servers
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 15)   such as all modern versions of Windows (including Windows 2016
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 16)   Server), as well as by Samba (which provides excellent
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 17)   CIFS/SMB2/SMB3 server support and tools for Linux and many other
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 18)   operating systems).  Apple systems also support SMB3 well, as
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 19)   do most Network Attached Storage vendors, so this network
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 20)   filesystem client can mount to a wide variety of systems.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 21)   It also supports mounting to the cloud (for example
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 22)   Microsoft Azure), including the necessary security features.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 23) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 24)   The intent of this module is to provide the most advanced network
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 25)   file system function for SMB3 compliant servers, including advanced
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 26)   security features, excellent parallelized high performance i/o, better
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 27)   POSIX compliance, secure per-user session establishment, encryption,
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 28)   high performance safe distributed caching (leases/oplocks), optional packet
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 29)   signing, large files, Unicode support and other internationalization
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 30)   improvements. Since both Samba server and this filesystem client support
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 31)   the CIFS Unix extensions (and in the future SMB3 POSIX extensions),
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 32)   the combination can provide a reasonable alternative to other network and
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 33)   cluster file systems for fileserving in some Linux to Linux environments,
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 34)   not just in Linux to Windows (or Linux to Mac) environments.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 35) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 36)   This filesystem has a mount utility (mount.cifs) and various user space
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 37)   tools (including smbinfo and setcifsacl) that can be obtained from
