1This is the 'CIFS on CIFS' backend for Samba. It provides a NTVFS
2backend that talks to a remote CIFS server. The primary aim of this
3backend is for debugging and development, although some poeple may
4find it useful as a CIFS gateway.

6There are two modes of operation: Password specified and delegated
7credentials.
8
9Password specified:
10-------------------
11
12This uses a static username/password in the config file, example:
13
14[myshare]
15 ntvfs handler = cifs
16 cifs:server = myserver
17 cifs:user = tridge
18 cifs:password = mypass
19 cifs:domain = TESTDOM
20 cifs:share = test
21
22
23Delegated credentials:
24----------------------
25
26If your incoming user is authenticated with Kerberos, and the machine
27account for this Samba4 proxy server is 'trusted for delegation', then
28the Samba4 proxy can forward the client's credentials to the target.
29
30You must be joined to the domain (net join <domain> member).
31
32To set 'trusted for delegation' with MMC, see the checkbox in the
33Computer account property page under Users and Computers.

35[myshare]
36 ntvfs handler = cifs
37 cifs:server = myserver
38 cifs:share = test
