  9. Ext2 is a standard Linux file system for hard disks.
  10. To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the

  60. help
  61. This is the journalling version of the Second extended file system
  62. (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system
  63. (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks.
  64. The journalling code included in this driver means you do not have
  65. to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a
  66. crash. The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made
  67. at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
  68. is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.
  69. Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format
  70. of ext3 is identical to ext2. It is possible to freely switch
  71. between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the
  72. file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file
  73. system.
  74. To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the
  75. behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man
  76. tune2fs"). To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3

  1408. Note: if you just want your box to act as an SMB *server* and make
  1409. files and printing services available to Windows clients (which need
  1410. to have a TCP/IP stack), you don't need to say Y here; you can use
  1411. the program SAMBA (available from <ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/samba/>)
  1412. for that.
  1413. General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and
  1414. Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>.
  1415. To compile the SMB support as a module, choose M here: the module will
  1416. be called smbfs. Most people say N, however.

  1420. help
  1421. Enabling this will make smbfs use nls translations by default. You
  1422. need to specify the local charset (CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT) in the nls
  1423. settings and you need to give the default nls for the SMB server as
  1424. CONFIG_SMB_NLS_REMOTE.
  1425. The nls settings can be changed at mount time, if your smbmount
  1426. supports that, using the codepage and iocharset parameters.
  1427. smbmount from samba 2.2.0 or later supports this.

  1433. This setting allows you to specify a default value for which
  1434. codepage the server uses. If this field is left blank no
  1435. translations will be done by default. The local codepage/charset
  1436. default to CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT.

  1444. help
  1445. This is the client VFS module for the Common Internet File System
  1446. (CIFS) protocol which is the successor to the Server Message Block
  1447. (SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early
  1448. PC operating systems. The CIFS protocol is fully supported by
  1449. file servers such as Windows 2000 (including Windows 2003, NT 4
  1450. and Windows XP) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS
  1451. server support for Linux and many other operating systems). Limited
  1452. support for Windows ME and similar servers is provided as well.
  1453. You must use the smbfs client filesystem to access older SMB servers
  1454. such as OS/2 and DOS.
  1455. The intent of the cifs module is to provide an advanced
  1456. network file system client for mounting to CIFS compliant servers,
  1457. including support for dfs (hierarchical name space), secure per-user
  1458. session establishment, safe distributed caching (oplock), optional
  1459. packet signing, Unicode and other internationalization improvements,
  1460. and optional Winbind (nsswitch) integration. You do not need to enable
  1461. cifs if running only a (Samba) server. It is possible to enable both
  1462. smbfs and cifs (e.g. if you are using CIFS for accessing Windows 2003
  1463. and Samba 3 servers, and smbfs for accessing old servers). If you need
  1464. to mount to Samba or Windows from this machine, say Y.

  1474. help
  1475. Enabling this option will allow more detailed statistics on SMB
  1476. request timing to be displayed in /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData and also
  1477. allow optional logging of slow responses to dmesg (depending on the
  1478. value of /proc/fs/cifs/cifsFYI, see fs/cifs/README for more details).
  1479. These additional statistics may have a minor effect on performance
  1480. and memory utilization.

  1482. or tuning, say N.
  1483. config CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH
  1484. bool "Support legacy servers which use weaker LANMAN security"
  1485. depends on CIFS
  1486. help
  1487. Modern CIFS servers including Samba and most Windows versions
  1488. (since 1997) support stronger NTLM (and even NTLMv2 and Kerberos)
  1489. security mechanisms. These hash the password more securely
  1490. than the mechanisms used in the older LANMAN version of the
  1491. SMB protocol needed to establish sessions with old SMB servers.
  1492. Enabling this option allows the cifs module to mount to older
  1493. LANMAN based servers such as OS/2 and Windows 95, but such
  1494. mounts may be less secure than mounts using NTLM or more recent
  1495. security mechanisms if you are on a public network. Unless you
  1496. have a need to access old SMB servers (and are on a private
  1497. network) you probably want to say N. Even if this support
  1498. is enabled in the kernel build, they will not be used
  1499. automatically. At runtime LANMAN mounts are disabled but
  1500. can be set to required (or optional) either in
  1501. /proc/fs/cifs (see fs/cifs/README for more detail) or via an
  1502. option on the mount command. This support is disabled by
  1503. default in order to reduce the possibility of a downgrade
  1504. attack.

  1511. the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit
  1512. <http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details). CIFS maps the name of
  1513. extended attributes beginning with the user namespace prefix
  1514. to SMB/CIFS EAs. EAs are stored on Windows servers without the
  1515. user namespace prefix, but their names are seen by Linux cifs clients
  1516. prefaced by the user namespace prefix. The system namespace
  1517. (used by some filesystems to store ACLs) is not supported at
  1518. this time.

  1521. bool "CIFS POSIX Extensions"
  1522. depends on CIFS_XATTR

  1524. Enabling this option will cause the cifs client to attempt to
  1525. negotiate a newer dialect with servers, such as Samba 3.0.5
  1526. or later, that optionally can handle more POSIX like (rather
  1527. than Windows like) file behavior. It also enables
  1528. support for POSIX ACLs (getfacl and setfacl) to servers
  1529. (such as Samba 3.10 and later) which can negotiate
  1530. CIFS POSIX ACL support. If unsure, say N.

  1533. depends on CIFS
  1534. help
  1535. Enabling this option adds a few more debugging routines
  1536. to the cifs code which slightly increases the size of
  1537. the cifs module and can cause additional logging of debug
  1538. messages in some error paths, slowing performance. This
  1539. option can be turned off unless you are debugging

  1547. (multipage writebehind performance improvements) and directory
  1548. change notification ie fcntl(F_DNOTIFY) as well as some security
  1549. improvements. Some also depend on setting at runtime the

  1567. NCP (NetWare Core Protocol) is a protocol that runs over IPX and is
  1568. used by Novell NetWare clients to talk to file servers. It is to
  1569. IPX what NFS is to TCP/IP, if that helps. Saying Y here allows you
  1570. to mount NetWare file server volumes and to access them just like
  1571. any other Unix directory. For details, please read the file

  1585. Coda is an advanced network file system, similar to NFS in that it
  1586. enables you to mount file systems of a remote server and access them
  1587. with regular Unix commands as if they were sitting on your hard
  1588. disk. Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for
  1589. disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server
  1590. replication, security model for authentication and encryption,
  1591. persistent client caches and write back caching.
  1592. If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda
  1593. *client*. You will need user level code as well, both for the
  1594. client and server. Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need
  1595. no kernel support. Please read
  1596. <file:Documentation/filesystems/coda.txt> and check out the Coda
  1597. home page <http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>.
