Is CONFIG_SMB_UNIX enabled in 2.4 kernels?

  | CONFIG_SMB_UNIX:
  |
  | Enabling this will make smbfs use the CIFS Unix Extensions if
  | supported by the server. These extensions allows use of unix user
  | ids, permissions, file modes, symlinks, etc that normally do not
  | work on smbfs.
  |
  | Samba 3.0 servers supports these extensions.
