Recently I has found the site with advanced CIFS, which looks like solution for my client using DFS, but need use it from Linux too. 1) But can not download some files: The following links are broken - at least I can not get anything from there: a) Installation info: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfrench/cifs-backport-old-kernels.git;a=blob;f=fs/cifs/README shows: /pub/scm / 404 - No such project b) at download page (http://linux-cifs.samba.org/cifs_download.html ): for RHEL4...: fs/cifs src 1.34a : ftp://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.34-RHEL4a.tar.gz but link to current 1.50 is OK : http://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.50.tar.gz 2) At start page also not clear: from one side - "has been backported to compile (on 2.4 kernels, not just older 2.6. kernel versions)" from other side - "files for the fs/cifs directory which includes a relatively recent version of the cifs vfs which has been backported to build on various earlier kernels (2.6.14 or later)" My system is: -bash-3.00$ uname -a Linux hostname*2.6.9*-89.0.0.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue May 19 05:31:20 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -bash-3.00$ cat /etc/issue Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (October Update 8) (this is Oracle Linux, almost 1:1 as RHEL 4.8) So questions: 1) is it possible to make working Advanced CIFS on my platform? 2) if yes - which version of sources (or may be rpm also available) should I download and installed (if ot 1.50 - where can I get it) 3) Installation instructions also required. Thanks in advance for assistance! Best regards, Andrey Chervonets ---------------------- CoMinder Support http://www.cominder.eu/ GSM: +371 26517848
