| 5 | The author wishes to express his appreciation and thanks to: | |
| 6 | Andrew Tridgell (Samba team) for his early suggestions about smb/cifs VFS | |
| 966ca923 SF |
7 | improvements. Thanks to IBM for allowing me time and test resources to pursue |
| 8 | this project, to Jim McDonough from IBM (and the Samba Team) for his help, to | |
| 9 | the IBM Linux JFS team for explaining many esoteric Linux filesystem features. | |
| 10 | Jeremy Allison of the Samba team has done invaluable work in adding the server | |
| 11 | side of the original CIFS Unix extensions and reviewing and implementing | |
| 12 | portions of the newer CIFS POSIX extensions into the Samba 3 file server. Thank | |
| 1da177e4 | 13 | Dave Boutcher of IBM Rochester (author of the OS/400 smb/cifs filesystem client) |
| 966ca923 SF |
14 | for proving years ago that very good smb/cifs clients could be done on Unix-like |
| 15 | operating systems. Volker Lendecke, Andrew Tridgell, Urban Widmark, John | |
| 16 | Newbigin and others for their work on the Linux smbfs module. Thanks to | |
| 1da177e4 LT |
17 | the other members of the Storage Network Industry Association CIFS Technical |
| 18 | Workgroup for their work specifying this highly complex protocol and finally | |
| 19 | thanks to the Samba team for their technical advice and encouragement. | |
