cc2e2767 75 This is the journalling version of the Second extended file system
1da177e4
LT
76 (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system
77 (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks.
78
cc2e2767 79 The journalling code included in this driver means you do not have
1da177e4
LT
80 to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a
81 crash. The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made
82 at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
83 is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.
84
85 Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format
86 of ext3 is identical to ext2. It is possible to freely switch
87 between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the
88 file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file
89 system.
90
91 To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the
92 behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man
93 tune2fs"). To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3
94 file systems, use chattr ("man chattr"). You need to be using
95 e2fsprogs version 1.20 or later in order to create ext3 journals
96 (available at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/e2fsprogs/>).

1519 BSD and derivate versions of Unix (such as SunOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD,

1521 Unixes can create and mount hard disk partitions and diskettes using
1522 this file system as well. Saying Y here will allow you to read from
1523 these partitions; if you also want to write to them, say Y to the

1964 Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
1965 the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit
1966 <http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details). CIFS maps the name of
1967 extended attributes beginning with the user namespace prefix
1968 to SMB/CIFS EAs. EAs are stored on Windows servers without the
1969 user namespace prefix, but their names are seen by Linux cifs clients
1970 prefaced by the user namespace prefix. The system namespace
1971 (used by some filesystems to store ACLs) is not supported at
1972 this time.

1980 Enabling this option will cause the cifs client to attempt to
1981 negotiate a newer dialect with servers, such as Samba 3.0.5
1982 or later, that optionally can handle more POSIX like (rather
1983 than Windows like) file behavior. It also enables
1984 support for POSIX ACLs (getfacl and setfacl) to servers
1985 (such as Samba 3.10 and later) which can negotiate
1986 CIFS POSIX ACL support. If unsure, say N.

1992 Enabling this option adds a few more debugging routines
1993 to the cifs code which slightly increases the size of
1994 the cifs module and can cause additional logging of debug
1995 messages in some error paths, slowing performance. This
1996 option can be turned off unless you are debugging
1997 cifs problems. If unsure, say N.

2025 help
2026 NCP (NetWare Core Protocol) is a protocol that runs over IPX and is
2027 used by Novell NetWare clients to talk to file servers. It is to
2028 IPX what NFS is to TCP/IP, if that helps. Saying Y here allows you
2029 to mount NetWare file server volumes and to access them just like
2030 any other Unix directory. For details, please read the file
2031 <file:Documentation/filesystems/ncpfs.txt> in the kernel source and
2032 the IPX-HOWTO from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
2033
2034 You do not have to say Y here if you want your Linux box to act as a
2035 file *server* for Novell NetWare clients.

2048 help
2049 Coda is an advanced network file system, similar to NFS in that it
2050 enables you to mount file systems of a remote server and access them
2051 with regular Unix commands as if they were sitting on your hard
2052 disk. Coda has several advantages over NFS: support for
2053 disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server
2054 replication, security model for authentication and encryption,
2055 persistent client caches and write back caching.
2056
2057 If you say Y here, your Linux box will be able to act as a Coda
2058 *client*. You will need user level code as well, both for the
2059 client and server. Servers are currently user level, i.e. they need
2060 no kernel support. Please read
2061 <file:Documentation/filesystems/coda.txt> and check out the Coda
2062 home page <http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/>.
