Wilhelm,

Would you be willing to put some instructions together on what it takes 
to do this?



TIA,

Re: [Vserver] Linux-VServer booth at Linuxtag 2007

 Hi all,
 
 this years Linuxtag will take place in Berlin (ICC), from 30.5. to 2.6.
 and we are applying for a booth, so is there anyone willing to help?
 
 If you want to participate i need your answer pretty much, even better
 yesterday, since the time for booth application is officialy over
 already, though we still have a chance, and i need to know (at least)
 rough numbers for exhibitor passes, if you want one.

Since there wasn't a single response, there will be NO vserver booth at
linuxtag (at least i won't do it myself)...

 Wilhelm,

 to do this?

Ok., get the patch from the list and apply it 
to /usr/src/linux-vserver/fs/cifs/connect.c (or whatever you kernel source 
path is).

Recompile the kernel and/or modules (if cifs is a module). be sure to load the 
newly compiled module ;-)

Boot the host into the new kernel or just un/load the cifs module.

Set the ccaps of a guest to binary_mount and secure_mount.

Restart the guest.

Enter the guest and do a

mount.cifs '\\windowsserver\share' /mnt/test -o 
user=windowsusername,pass=password

inside the guest.

That's all. 
Now you can use cifs-mounts inside a guest (like nfs-mounts).

Has the patch been submitted to (and reviewed by) 
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Note that it already doesn't follow 
the typical coding style used in the kernel (regarding the if/while( x ) 
thing).

I posted it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Steve French told me that it 
is actually in the cifs-2.6 git.
