[linux-cifs-client] Question on current state of sec=krb5* integration in cifs.ko

[Holger Rauch]

Hi to everybody,

I came accross this link

http://fixunix.com/samba/140566-samba-mount-cifs-sec-krb5.html

while trying to use sec=krb5 or sec=krb5i in conjunction with
mount.cifs. On a Debian Lenny system (includes version 1.53 of
cifs.ko), this doesn't seem to work. This thread is quite old
(10/2007) and I'm wondering whether what's been said in there is still
valid.

"smbclient -L ... -k" or "smbclient ... -k" calls work without any
problems (provided that I run "kinit" in advance). In the interactive
smb shell, I can use e.g. mkdir and rmdir without any problem. So, my
Kerberos setup is working.

Installed kernel image on Debian Lenny is ("uname -r" output):

2.6.26-2-686-bigmem

What's the current status regarding sec=krb5 and sec=krb5i mount
options?

Thanks in advance for any info!

Kind regards,

     Holger
