Quick read on CIFS
CIFS Common Internet File System:
- CIFS is M$ way of doing network file sharing
- Allows for sharing of file, directories, printers, etc...
- There are protocols for service announcement, naming, authentication, and authorization
- The file sharing protocol is Server Message Block (SMB.) originally developped to run over NetBIOS (now available over TCP/IP -- NBT)
- NBT: three services must be implemented:
- Name service (NetBIOS name to IP addresses mapping UDP port 137,)
- datagram service (NetBIOS datagram delivery via UDP port 138)
- session service (point to point connection oriented NetBIOS sessions over TCP port 139, the traditional transport for SMB.)
- Name service (NetBIOS name to IP addresses mapping UDP port 137,)
- Communication endpoints are 16-bytes strings called NetBIOS names.
- Group names can be shared by multiple clients.
- SMB: Raw (naked) over TCP (port 445) or over NBT session service.
