BTW, I expected a "2/2" message, but never saw it. Was the
subject a typo?
Anyway, I have a couple of comments on the new file, which are from
going to
https://github.com/cifsd-team/ksmbd-tools/blob/master/smb.conf.5ksmbd.in
It refers to "SMB1", but ksmbd removed that, right? And because the
SMB2 (and SMB3!) dialects don't make it optional, does the setting
still make sense? Either way, delete "SMB1" and don't restrict the
discussion to "SMB2":
\fBserver signing\fR (G)
This controls whether the client is allowed or required to use SMB1 and
SMB2 signing.
With \fBserver signing = disabled\fR, SMB1 signing is not offered and
\fBserver signing = auto\fR applies when negotiating SMB2.
With \fBserver signing = auto\fR, SMB1 signing is offered and SMB2
signing is required.
With \fBserver signing = mandatory\fR, both SMB1 and SMB2 signing is
required.
Also, most of the settings start with the words "This controls whether".
I find these words unnecessary, and by the third or fourth one, they
are super-redundant. Would you consider rewording them in a more
active way, for example:
\fBbind interfaces only\fR (G)
This controls whether to only bind to interfaces specified with
\fBinterfaces\fR.
... could be:
\fBbind interfaces only\fR (G)
Only bind to the interfaces specified in the \fBinterfaces\fR setting.
