Good day!
Recently I has found the site with advanced CIFS, which looks like
solution for my client using DFS, but need use it from Linux too.
1) But can not download some files:
The following links are broken - at least I can not get anything
from there:
a) Installation info:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfrench/cifs-backport-old-kernels.git;a=blob;f=fs/cifs/README
shows: /pub/scm / 404 - No such project
b) at download page (http://linux-cifs.samba.org/cifs_download.html ):
for RHEL4...: fs/cifs src 1.34a :
ftp://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.34-RHEL4a.tar.gz
but link to current 1.50 is OK :
http://pserver.samba.org/samba/ftp/cifs-cvs/cifs-1.50.tar.gz
2) At start page also not clear:
from one side - "has been backported to compile (on 2.4 kernels,
not just older 2.6. kernel versions)"
from other side - "files for the fs/cifs directory which includes a
relatively recent version of the cifs vfs which has been backported to
build on various earlier kernels (2.6.14 or later)"
My system is:
-bash-3.00$ uname -a
Linux hostname*2.6.9*-89.0.0.0.1.ELsmp #1 SMP Tue May 19 05:31:20 EDT
2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
-bash-3.00$ cat /etc/issue
Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (October Update 8)
(this is Oracle Linux, almost 1:1 as RHEL 4.8)
So questions:
1) is it possible to make working Advanced CIFS on my platform?
2) if yes - which version of sources (or may be rpm also available)
should I download and installed (if ot 1.50 - where can I get it)
3) Installation instructions also required.
Thanks in advance for assistance!
Best regards,
Andrey Chervonets
