Thank you for dedicating a little of your time to review cifs :-) I will be alert to updates to test again trying to connect via cifs to various scenarios: Win10, Zentyal Linux (domain) and a small machine with MX Linux 21 installed only for tests with Plan9 and cifs with a share as 'guest'. El

i am the author of cifs. i may have some slightly more recent fixes than 9 front has, i will check. the manual page does explain some registry settings you may need to tweak to get it to work - to do with windows getting more and more restrictive about the authentication protocols it supports.

Thank you very much for the information. You are absolutely right: the documentation offered in /sys/doc offers a lot of useful information to understand how Plan9 works. One of the first documents I read was the "Plan 9 From Bell Labs" and just after almost the entire "book" DASH 1 from

I get failures when cifs(4) attempts protocol negotiation with Samba 4.14.12 on OpenBSD 7-stable, Windows 10, and Server 2019. cifs(4) itself hasn't seen any commits since 2019, and may be awfully out-of-date compared to the latest rubbish out of Redmond. I'm also not aware of anyone that actually
