This is the 'CIFS on CIFS' backend for Samba. It provides a NTVFS backend that talks to a remote CIFS server. The primary aim of this backend is for debugging and development, although some poeple may find it useful as a CIFS gateway. There are two modes of operation: Password specified and delegated credentials. Password specified: ------------------- This uses a static username/password in the config file, example: [myshare] ntvfs handler = cifs cifs:server = myserver cifs:user = tridge cifs:password = mypass cifs:domain = TESTDOM cifs:share = test Delegated credentials: ---------------------- If your incoming user is authenticated with Kerberos, and the machine account for this Samba4 proxy server is 'trusted for delegation', then the Samba4 proxy can forward the client's credentials to the target. You must be joined to the domain (net join member). To set 'trusted for delegation' with MMC, see the checkbox in the Computer account property page under Users and Computers. [myshare] ntvfs handler = cifs cifs:server = myserver cifs:share = test
