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

[Holger Rauch]

Hi Volker,

I looked at

http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/UNIX_Extensions

but I couldn't find anything about SMB encryption. Do you have any
good links concerning both SMB signing and encryption (configuring it,
smb.conf options, etc.)?

Are they both part of Samba 3.2.5 (shipped with Debian Lenny) or would
I need a more recent version of Samba?

Thanks for enlightening me & kind regards,
