Hi,
We have a number of Windows Server 2003 shares mounted on our AIX server via CIFS, using a command similar to this:
mkcifsmnt -f /test -d testshare -h testserver -c testuser -p pass -w DOMAIN
The windows servers are currently being upgraded to 2012, and as part of this they are setting SMB/CIFS security signature as a requirement (they won't be able to turn it off) via the following Windows Server reg setting:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Parameters\RequireSecuritySignature
Once this is set, our AIX CIFS mounts stop working because from what I can see the AIX CIFS mount doesn't seem to use message signing.
I presumed there would be setting to turn it on, but I can't find anything. Does anyone know if message signing is supported by the AIX CIFS packages?
Our AIX version is 6100-09-05-1524, and the CIFS package versions are as follows:
lslpp -L | grep cif
bos.cifs_fs.rte 6.1.9.45 C F Runtime for SMBFS
bos.cifs_fs.smit 6.1.6.0 C F SMIT Interface for SMBFS
I would be very grateful for any help that you can provide.
Andy
