If the security type specified using a mount option is not supported, the SMB2 session setup code changes the security type to RawNTLMSSP. We should instead fail the mount and return an error.
--- Saw the comment by Steve F, and it got me to thinking. Please take this as a suggestion or idea... I'm not heavily committed to a single solution, at this point, as haven't really thought through all of the ramifications. Is it possible to add a 'prefix' or 'suffix', like an "=" sign or a '+' -- to mean: '=' = exactly this 'sec' level '+' = this 'sec'-level or greater '<' = less than or equal to this sec-level --- Using the symbols is a similar idea to some fields in 'find' where +/- are used to indicate greater or less than the stated number. I'm not sure about the symbols, exactly, but I know in samba I ask for smb2 for the protocol and more often than not, only get smb1, but I'd rather have it work than fail. Since I'm on a closed net, I'd have to say the same for security options, but I'd like to have a choice to force it if I wanted to... Anyway -- just an idea that might offer more flexibility than just 'fail'... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
