server-by-server basis. See “CIFS UNIX Extensions”
(page 10) for details.
caseSensitive This is a boolean variable (possible values yes or no) which
specifies whether filenames on the server are case sensitive.
By default, they are case sensitive in order to be consistent
with the UNIX file system. If you use a case mapping
different from none (see next parameter), you must set this
parameter to no.
caseMapping This variable (of type enumeration) defines whether file
names are mapped to all upper case (upper), all lower case
(lower) or preserved as they are on the server (none).
capitalizeShares This boolean variable defines whether share names are
converted to all uppercase characters before a connection
is attempted. Share names should be case insensitive, but
Windows 95 does not accept lowercase names. If this
option occurs in section serverClasses, it can override a no
to a yes, but not a yes to a no. The default is yes .
useUnicode This boolean variable specifies whether the HP CIFS Client
will use Unicode if the server supports it.
useStrictUnicode This boolean variable works in conjunction with
"useUnicode". useStrictUnicode ensures that Unicode is
strictly used in all communication.
The default is No.
domain This string variable defines the domain name the client sends
to the server. If undefined, it defaults to an empty string
which should be suitable for all known servers. (move to
cifs.domain)
alwaysEncryptData If this boolean variable is set to yes, only SSL (Secure Socket
Layer) connections with the server are accepted. If set to no,
SSL is negotiated with the server.
guestRemoteUser The guestRemoteUser configuration solves the following
problem: each UNIX user must be logged in (mapped to a
CIFS username/password pair) at the server in order to
access it, even if the share is public. It may be impractical
to log in each user if there are a large number of UNIX users
who, for example, want to access a public share where
access permissions are not important. If you define a
guestRemotetUser, all UNIX users that are logged in to the
HP-UX system, but not logged in to the CIFS server, are
automatically logged in to the CIFS server, as the guest user,
when they attempt to access its mount point. No pre-existing
login for the guestRemoteUser is needed. The name specified
as guestRemoteUser must be the name of a valid account
on the CIFS server or its domain, and the correct password
for this user must be specified in the guestPassword
parameter.
guestPassword This variable sets the password of a user specified by the
guestRemoteUser parameter.
fileModeMask This variable can be used to limit the UNIX permissions
given to files by the CIFS. The default setting is 0777. Do
not change unless you know what you are doing. The UNIX
