- Steve French (sfrench@samba.org)
- The author wishes to express his appreciation and thanks to:
- Andrew Tridgell (Samba team) for his early suggestions about smb/cifs VFS
- improvements. Thanks to IBM for allowing me the time and test resources to pursue
- this project. Jim McDonough from IBM (and the Samba Team) for his help.
- The IBM Linux JFS team for explaining many esoteric Linux filesystem features.
- Dave Boutcher of IBM Rochester (author of the OS/400 smb/cifs filesystem client)
- for proving years ago that a very good smb/cifs client could be done on a Unix like
- operating system. Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Urban Widmark, John Newbigin
- and others for their work on the Linux smbfs module over the years. Thanks to
- the other members of the Storage Network Industry Association CIFS Technical
- Workgroup for their work specifying this highly complex protocol and finally
- thanks to the Samba team for their technical advice and encouragement.
