Good evening, On the bottom of page 53, section 4.1.2.2 in the SNIA spec (http://www.snia.org/tech_activities/CIFS/CIFS-TR-1p00_FINAL.pdf), it states if the dialect is NT LM 0.12 and extended security is off (I.e., use "traditional" NTLMv2/NTLMv2 authentication w/o SecurityBlobs), the SessionSetupAndX response is as shown in section 4.1.2.2 with a word count = 4. However, what I have noticed is this is not the case, but rather, if you are doing NTLMv2 or NTLMv1 authentication w/o extended security, the SessionSetupAndX is really the one shown in 4.1.2.1 with a word count = 3. I tried this a f...

..., Two questions for you this evening. How do you tell the difference between NTLMv1-style authentication and NTLMv2 style? The CIFS dialect NT LM 0.12 does both(?), so does not appear in the NegProtRequest message (nor in the flags, near as I could tell). Do you ascertain this by examining the SessionSetupAndX message? If so, what parts? Is it possible to have more than one CIFS "identity" on a TCP connection? For example, say I open a TCP connection, authenticate myself using NegProt/SessionSetupAndX/etc exchanges as user "foo" password "bar", can I also establish anothe...

There is a samba compiled without winbind support, with the following options configured: workgroup = MYDOMAIN security = domain allow trusted domains = yes add user script = /usr/sbin/pw useradd %u -m -Y -M 755 When a Windows user MYDOMAIN\john connects to the samba server, he is mapped to the Unix user john. If there is no Unix user "john", it is created by the add user script. How

...anism on modern UNIX/Linux systems. By saying "users and groups are local," we are implying that they are stored only on the local system, in the /etc/passwd and /etc/group respectively. For example, when the user BERYLIUM\WambatW tries to open a connection to a Samba server the incoming SessionSetupAndX request will make a system call to look up the user WambatW in the /etc/passwd file.
