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.
