  6. SMB (Server Message Block) is the protocol Windows for Workgroups
  7. (WfW), Windows 95/98, Windows NT and OS/2 Lan Manager use to share
  8. files and printers over local networks. Saying Y here allows you to
  9. mount their file systems (often called "shares" in this context) and
  10. access them just like any other Unix directory. Currently, this
  11. works only if the Windows machines use TCP/IP as the underlying
  12. transport protocol, and not NetBEUI. For details, read
  13. <file:Documentation/filesystems/smbfs.txt> and the SMB-HOWTO,
  14. available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
  15. Note: if you just want your box to act as an SMB *server* and make
  16. files and printing services available to Windows clients (which need
  17. to have a TCP/IP stack), you don't need to say Y here; you can use
  18. the program SAMBA (available from <ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/samba/>)
  19. for that.
  20. General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
  21. Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>.
  22. To compile the SMB support as a module, choose M here:
  23. the module will be called smbfs. Most people say N, however.
  24. config SMB_NLS_DEFAULT
  25. bool "Use a default NLS"
  26. depends on SMB_FS
  27. help
  28. Enabling this will make smbfs use nls translations by default. You
  29. need to specify the local charset (CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT) in the nls
  30. settings and you need to give the default nls for the SMB server as
  31. CONFIG_SMB_NLS_REMOTE.
  32. The nls settings can be changed at mount time, if your smbmount
  33. supports that, using the codepage and iocharset parameters.
  34. smbmount from samba 2.2.0 or later supports this.
  35. config SMB_NLS_REMOTE
  36. string "Default Remote NLS Option"
  37. depends on SMB_NLS_DEFAULT
  38. default "cp437"
  39. help
  40. This setting allows you to specify a default value for which
  41. codepage the server uses. If this field is left blank no
  42. translations will be done by default. The local codepage/charset
  43. default to CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT.
  44. The nls settings can be changed at mount time, if your smbmount
  45. supports that, using the codepage and iocharset parameters.
  46. smbmount from samba 2.2.0 or later supports this.
