Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : kernel-patch-cifs-2.4 Version : 1.20c Upstream Author : Steve French ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and others * URL : http://samba.mirror.bit.nl/samba/Linux_CIFS_client.html * License : GPLv2 or later Description : Advanced Common Internet File System for Linux
The CIFS VFS is a virtual file system for Linux to allow access to servers and storage appliances compliant with the SNIA CIFS Specification version 1.0 or later. Popular servers such as Samba, Windows 2000, Windows XP and many others support CIFS by default. The CIFS VFS does not provide support for older servers based on the more primitive SMB (Server Message Block) protocol (you can use the Linux filesystem smbfs for these). CIFS VFS is designed to take advantage of advanced network filesystem features such as locking, Unicode (advanced internationalization), hardlinks, dfs (heirarchical, replicated name space), distributed caching and uses native TCP names (rather than RFC1001, Netbios names). -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.28-rc1-debian5+skas+lmsensors+3c59xvlan+lmlbt4x Locale: LANG=pt_BR, LC_CTYPE=pt_BR (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
