HP CIFS Client A.02.02 Administrator's Guide
Configuration File
Configuration Parameters
Chapter 7114
cifs The structure of CIFS has its mirror in the multitude
of options for CIFS configurations. This section defines
a default behavior which can be overridden by specific
configurations. The CIFS section contains the following
parameters:
dataCacheSize This integer variable defines the number of bytes spent
for per data cache. The value of this variable should be
a multiple of 8k.
databaseFile This variable configures the path to the user database
file. It stores the user passwords and the registration
key. The default is /var/opt/cifsclient/cifsclient.udb.
databaseParseInterval
HP CIFS Client can re-parse the user database file if it
changes. For this function to work, HP CIFS Client
must poll the file regularly. The databaseParseInterval
variable defines the time of this poll cycle in
milliseconds. If you set this variable to 0, the user
database file is only parsed once during startup. The
default value is 10000.
domain This string variable defines the domain name the client
sends to the server. If undefined, it defaults to an
empty string suitable for all known servers.
initialDataCaches, initialDirCaches
These two integer variables define the number of
caches that are allocated for directories and data files
at startup. The defaults for both variables is 8.
bindNbnsPort
This variable defines the port number to which HP
CIFS Client sends NetBIOS name service requests. If
the port number specified is not available, HP CIFS
Client reverts to a random free port. The default is 137.
bindNbdgsPort
This variable defines the port number to which HP
CIFS Client sends NetBIOS datagram requests. If the
port number specified is not available, HP CIFS Client
reverts to a random free port. The default is 138.
