To use the Novell implementation of CIFS file services on your OES 2 Linux server, you must install the service by using the instructions in the OES 2 SP2: Installation Guide (for a new installation) or install it after the initial OES installation, as explained in Installing and Configuring a CIFS Server through YaST
in the OES 2 SP2: Novell CIFS for Linux Administration Guide.
NOTE:If you are new to OES, we recommend the OES 2 SP2: Lab Guide for Linux and Virtualized NetWare for an introduction to creating and working with eDirectory objects and OES 2 file services, including Novell CIFS.
All eDirectory users can access the CIFS file services on an OES 2 Linux server as they would any Windows workgroup server.
For instructions on implementing Novell CIFS, see Planning and Implementing CIFS
in the OES 2 SP2: Novell CIFS for Linux Administration Guide.
Information on maintaining your CIFS installation is found in the OES 2 SP2: Novell CIFS for Linux Administration Guide.
