The author wishes to express his appreciation and thanks to: |
|
Andrew Tridgell (Samba team) for his early suggestions about SMB/CIFS VFS |
|
improvements. Thanks to IBM for allowing me time and test resources to pursue |
|
this project, to Jim McDonough from IBM (and the Samba Team) for his help, to |
|
the IBM Linux JFS team for explaining many esoteric Linux filesystem features. |
|
Jeremy Allison of the Samba team has done invaluable work in adding the server |
|
side of the original CIFS Unix extensions and reviewing and implementing |
|
portions of the newer CIFS POSIX extensions into the Samba 3 file server. Thank |
|
Dave Boutcher of IBM Rochester (author of the OS/400 smb/cifs filesystem client) |
|
for proving years ago that very good smb/cifs clients could be done on Unix-like |
|
operating systems. Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Urban Widmark, John |
|
Newbigin and others for their work on the Linux smbfs module. Thanks to |
|
the other members of the Storage Network Industry Association CIFS Technical |
|
Workgroup for their work specifying this highly complex protocol and finally |
|
thanks to the Samba team for their technical advice and encouragement. |
