Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Precedence: bulk List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-cifs@vger.kernel.org Looking in my loaded modules, 'cifs' is loading libdes, fscache and libarc4. My main question is why does a cifs filesystem that is mounted from the network need libdes and libarc if it is not using any encrypted connections on the wire? (FWIW wire a a dedicated line between a Win WS, and a linux file server, but encryption has never been needed. So what is causing these modules to be loaded in now?
