The HP CIFS Client A.01.09 provides the following new features and defect fixes:
• Kerberos Authentication, integration with System Kerberos Cache:
This release provides Kerberos authentication within the cifslogin and cifsmount
commands, and provides a method for automatic CIFS logins by integrating CIFS
authentication with programs that utilize the system Kerberos cache, such as PAM
Kerberos and kinit.
• Added support for new infolevel for FIND_FIRST and FIND_NEXT SMBs:
An enhancement has been implemented that improves interoperability with
third-party CIFS Servers that do not support older SMB infolevels.
• Fix for duplicate /etc/mnttab entries:
This fix eliminates a problem where, in certain instances, duplicate entries for
CIFS-mounted filesystems can be created in /etc/mnttab, thus causing duplicate
entries to be displayed in the output of mount.
• Resolved defect of CIFS mounts becoming unusable:
This fix eliminates a cause of a rare problem wherein a CIFS mount can become
inaccessible under certain conditions.
• Enhancements to PAM NTLM:
PAM NTLM now supports the ignore option, as well as per-user configuration within
the pam_user.conf and pam_updbe framework.
• New option for representation of mounted CIFS filesystems:
In previous releases, the representation of mounted CIFS filesystems in the output
of mount and bdf followed a proprietary form. In this release, the standard UNIX
representation of a mounted filesystem (server/share) can be displayed by setting the
configuration parameter, mtabName, to the null string:
mtabName = " "
