Hi Steve + UNIX CIFS fans,
I want to grab 2 new capability bits to implement
the CIFS transport encryption to make us feature
parity with NFS.
Here they are :
#define CIFS_UNIX_TRANSPORT_ENCRYPTION_CAP 0x40 /* We can do SPNEGO
negotiations for encryption. */
#define CIFS_UNIX_TRANSPORT_ENCRYPTION_MANDATORY_CAP 0x80 /* We
*must* SPNEGO negotiations for encryption. */
If 0x40 is set the client may ask for encryption, if both 0x40
and 0x80 are set the client *must* ask for encryption or it will
be disconnected.
Thoughts, comments ?
Jeremy.
