5 | tristate "NCP file system support (to mount NetWare volumes)" | |
6 | depends on IPX!=n || INET | |
7 | help | |
8 | NCP (NetWare Core Protocol) is a protocol that runs over IPX and is | |
9 | used by Novell NetWare clients to talk to file servers. It is to | |
10 | IPX what NFS is to TCP/IP, if that helps. Saying Y here allows you | |
11 | to mount NetWare file server volumes and to access them just like | |
12 | any other Unix directory. For details, please read the file | |
13 | <file:Documentation/filesystems/ncpfs.txt> in the kernel source and | |
14 | the IPX-HOWTO from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. | |
15 | ||
16 | You do not have to say Y here if you want your Linux box to act as a | |
17 | file *server* for Novell NetWare clients. | |
18 | ||
19 | General information about how to connect Linux, Windows machines and | |
20 | Macs is on the WWW at <http://www.eats.com/linux_mac_win.html>. | |
21 | ||
22 | To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called | |
23 | ncpfs. Say N unless you are connected to a Novell network. | |

25 | config NCPFS_PACKET_SIGNING |
26 | bool "Packet signatures" | |
27 | depends on NCP_FS | |
28 | help | |
29 | NCP allows packets to be signed for stronger security. If you want | |
30 | security, say Y. Normal users can leave it off. To be able to use | |
31 | packet signing you must use ncpfs > 2.0.12. | |
32 | ||
33 | config NCPFS_IOCTL_LOCKING | |
34 | bool "Proprietary file locking" | |
35 | depends on NCP_FS | |
36 | help | |
37 | Allows locking of records on remote volumes. Say N unless you have | |
38 | special applications which are able to utilize this locking scheme. | |
39 | ||
40 | config NCPFS_STRONG | |
41 | bool "Clear remove/delete inhibit when needed" | |
42 | depends on NCP_FS | |
43 | help | |
44 | Allows manipulation of files flagged as Delete or Rename Inhibit. | |
45 | To use this feature you must mount volumes with the ncpmount | |
46 | parameter "-s" (ncpfs-2.0.12 and newer). Say Y unless you are not | |
47 | mounting volumes with -f 444. | |
48 | ||
49 | config NCPFS_NFS_NS | |
50 | bool "Use NFS namespace if available" | |
51 | depends on NCP_FS | |
52 | help | |
53 | Allows you to utilize NFS namespace on NetWare servers. It brings | |
54 | you case sensitive filenames. Say Y. You can disable it at | |
55 | mount-time with the `-N nfs' parameter of ncpmount. | |
56 | ||
57 | config NCPFS_OS2_NS | |
58 | bool "Use LONG (OS/2) namespace if available" | |
59 | depends on NCP_FS | |
60 | help | |
61 | Allows you to utilize OS2/LONG namespace on NetWare servers. | |
62 | Filenames in this namespace are limited to 255 characters, they are | |
63 | case insensitive, and case in names is preserved. Say Y. You can | |
64 | disable it at mount time with the -N os2 parameter of ncpmount. | |
65 | ||
66 | config NCPFS_SMALLDOS | |
67 | bool "Lowercase DOS filenames" | |
68 | depends on NCP_FS | |
69 | ---help--- | |
70 | If you say Y here, every filename on a NetWare server volume using | |
71 | the OS2/LONG namespace and created under DOS or on a volume using | |
72 | DOS namespace will be converted to lowercase characters. | |
73 | Saying N here will give you these filenames in uppercase. | |
74 | ||
75 | This is only a cosmetic option since the OS2/LONG namespace is case | |
76 | insensitive. The only major reason for this option is backward | |
77 | compatibility when moving from DOS to OS2/LONG namespace support. | |
78 | Long filenames (created by Win95) will not be affected. | |
79 | ||
80 | This option does not solve the problem that filenames appear | |
81 | differently under Linux and under Windows, since Windows does an | |
82 | additional conversions on the client side. You can achieve similar | |
83 | effects by saying Y to "Allow using of Native Language Support" | |
84 | below. | |
85 | ||
86 | config NCPFS_NLS | |
87 | bool "Use Native Language Support" | |
88 | depends on NCP_FS | |
89 | select NLS | |
90 | help | |
91 | Allows you to use codepages and I/O charsets for file name | |
92 | translation between the server file system and input/output. This | |
93 | may be useful, if you want to access the server with other operating | |
94 | systems, e.g. Windows 95. See also NLS for more Information. | |
95 | ||
96 | To select codepages and I/O charsets use ncpfs-2.2.0.13 or newer. | |
97 | ||
98 | config NCPFS_EXTRAS | |
99 | bool "Enable symbolic links and execute flags" | |
100 | depends on NCP_FS | |
101 | help | |
102 | This enables the use of symbolic links and an execute permission | |
103 | bit on NCPFS. The file server need not have long name space or NFS | |
104 | name space loaded for these to work. | |
105 | ||
106 | To use the new attributes, it is recommended to use the flags | |
107 | '-f 600 -d 755' on the ncpmount command line. | |
