'''Attention:''' To access data served by SDS@hd via CIFS, You need a '''''Service Password'''''. See details [[Sds-hd_user_access|SDS@hd Access]].
 
 
Additionally the access to SDS@hd is currently only available inside the [https://www.belwue.de/netz/netz0.html belwue-Network].
 
 
This means you have to use the VPN Service of your HomeOrganization, if you want to access SDS@hd from outside the bwHPC-Clusters (e.g. via [https://www.eduroam.org/where/ eduroam] or from your personal Laptop)
 
 
The SMB connection has to be established at least with Protocolversion SMB2.02, which is available since Windows Vista or OSX 10.7, and a [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-protection/security-policy-settings/network-security-lan-manager-authentication-level NTLMv2 Authentication Level] of "Send NTLMv2 responses only"

You can use a CIFS share from a Microsoft operating system.
 
 
== Adopting Universal Naming Convention (UNC) syntax ==
 
 
Use Windows Explorer entering the path to the share in UNC syntax:
 
 
'''Examples:'''
 
 
<pre>
 
\\lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de
 
or
 
\\lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de\<sv-acronym>
 
</pre>
 
 
Following the input of the UNC path, a window will pop up: <br>
 
'''Loginname:''' BWSERVICESAD\hd_xy123 <br>
 
'''Password:''' ''Service Password''
 
<br><br>
 
Following authentication a new window pops up, showing the content of the share.
 
You can now manipulate your files as accustomed.

= <b> Using SMB/CIFS for UNIX client </b> =
 
 
A UNIX like operating system needs a CIFS client to use a share. CIFS clients are part of Samba implementation for Linux and other UNIX like operating systems (http://www.samba.org)
 
 
'''Attention:'''
 
The core CIFS protocol does not provide unix ownership information or mode for files and directories.
 
Because of this, files and directories will generally appear to be owned by whatever values the uid= or gid= options are set, and will have permissions set to the default file_mode and dir_mode for the mount. '''Attempting to change these values via chmod/chown will return success but have no effect.'''
 
 
For security reasons, server side permission checks cannot be overriden. The permission checks done by the server will always correspond to the credentials used to mount the share, and not necessarily to the user who is accessing the share.
 
 
Although mapping of POSIX UIDs and SIDs is not needed mounting a CIFS share '''it might become necessary when working with files on the share, e.g. when modifying ACLs'''.
 
 
<!--
 
For this reason the mount option <pre>cifsacl</pre> together with a working '''ID Mapping''' setup is required, to allow correct permission handling and changes. It offers also the tools
 
<pre>
 
getcifsacl
 
setcifsacl
 
</pre>
 
to work with ACLs.
 
 
With version 5.9 of cifs-utils a plugin interface was introduced by Jeff Layton to allow services other than winbind to handle the mapping of POSIX UIDs and SIDs. SSSD will provide a plugin to allow the cifs-utils to ask SSSD to map the ID. With this plugin a SSSD client can access a CIFS share with the same functionality as a client running Winbind.
 
 
For this reason we can use the same [[Sds-hd_nfs#configure kerberos environment for SDS@hd|SSSD setup]] for cifs like we use for the kerberized nfs-Setup.

== SMB Client ==
 
 
'''Example:'''
 
To list the files in a SMB share, use the program smbclient.
 
<pre>
 
smbclient -U 'BWSERVICESAD\hd_xy123' //lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/<sv-acronym>
 
Enter BWSERVICESAD\hd_xy123's password:
 
</pre>
 
 
The program allows you to access the files with a FTP like tool in an interactive shell.
 
<pre>
 
$ smbclient //lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/<sv-acronym> -U 'BWSERVICESAD\hd_xy123'
 
Enter BWSERVICESAD\hd_xy123's password:

== Mounting a SDS@hd Share ==
 
 
Mounting a SDS@hd CIFS share can be done by using username/password credentials or by using kerberos tickets.
 
Information about settting up a kerberos environment for SDS@hd can be found [[Sds-hd_kerberos|*here*]]'''.
 
 
=== Single-User Environment ===
 
 
A share can be mounted to a local directory, (e.g. /mnt/sds-hd ). Depending on your system setup, root privileges may be required.
 
 
CIFS normally binds all shares on the client as the property of the user who mounted them and transfers any existing write rights only to the user. With additional information from uid, gid, file_mode and dir_mode, other ownership and access rights can be defined when mounting on the client.
 
 
'''Nevertheless the ownership and access rights defined in this way are only simulated on the client and are not really transferred to the server.''' If access rights are changed on the client or files with other owners are created in shared folders, these changes only apply to the client and only until the next remount.
 
 
If you need to work with the correct server side permissions, please follow the setup of a [[Sds-hd_CIFS#Multiuser Environment|MultiUser Setup]]
 
 
==== Mount over command line ====
 
 
'''Example:'''
 
 
<pre>
 
$ mkdir /mnt/sds-hd
 
 
$ sudo mount -t cifs -o username=hd_xy123,domain=BWSERVICESAD,vers=3.0,mfsymlinks //lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/<sv-acronym> /mnt/sds-hd
 
Password:
 
 
$ df -h | grep sds-hd
 
//lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/sd16j007 108T 6,6T 101T 7% /mnt/sds-hd
 
 
$ cd /mnt/sds-hd/
 
$ ls
 
</pre>
 
Verify the success of the mount invoking the mount command without any arguments:
 
<pre>
 
$ mount | grep lsdf02
 
//lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/sd16j007 on /mnt/sds-hd type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=3.0,cache=strict,username=xxxx,domain=BWSERVICESAD,uid=1000,forceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=xxxxx,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1)
 
</pre>
 
 
==== Mount over /etc/fstab ====
 
 
'''Example:'''
 
 
<pre>
 
$ mkdir /mnt/mountpoint
 
 
/etc/fstab
 
//lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/<sv_acronym> /mnt/mountpoint cifs uid=<YOUR_UID>,gid=<YOUR_GID>,user,vers=3.0,mfsymlinks,credentials=<path_to_user_HOME>/credentialsfile,noauto 0 0
 
 
$ cat /path_to_user_HOME/credentialsfile
 
username=hd_ xy123
 
password=<your_servicepassword>
 
domain=BWSERVICESAD
 
 
$ mount /mnt/mountpoint
 
</pre>
 
Verify the success of the mount invoking the mount command without any arguments:
 
<pre>
 
$ mount | grep cifs
 
//lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/sd16j007 on /mnt/mountpoint type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=3.0,cache=strict,username=xxxx,domain=BWSERVICESAD,uid=1000,forceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=xxxxx,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1)
 
</pre>
 
 
=== Multiuser Environment ===
 
 
By default, CIFS mounts only use a single set of user credentials (the mount credentials) when accessing a share. To support different user session on the same mountpoint and the correct permission/ownership processing, the mount options <pre>multiuser,cifsacl</pre> have to be used. Because the kernel cannot prompt for passwords, '''multiuser mounts are limited to mounts using passwordless sec= options, like with sec=krb5. Information about settting up a kerberos environment can be found [[Sds-hd_kerberos|*here*]]'''
 
 
==== ID Mapping ====
 
 
In a Multiuser Environment it is important to get the correct ownerships and permissions from the server. Therefor you need to setup a [[Sds-hd_idmapping|ID Mapping]] environment.
 
 
Additionally we need the following packages to enable CIFS Mapping:
 
* RedHat/CentOS:
 
<pre>$ yum install cifs-utils keyutils</pre>
 
* debian/ubuntu:
 
<pre>$ apt install cifs-utils keyutils</pre>
 
 
After [[Sds-hd_idmapping|installing SSSD]] you have to ensure that it will be used for CIFS name resolution, e.g.
 
 
* RedHat/CentOS:
 
On RedHat SSSD should have allready a higher priority than winbind:
 
<pre>$ alternatives --display cifs-idmap-plugin
 
 
cifs-idmap-plugin - Status ist automatisch.
 
Link verweist auf /usr/lib64/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so
 
/usr/lib64/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so - priority 20
 
/usr/lib64/cifs-utils/idmapwb.so - priority 10
 
Zur Zeit ist die `best' Version /usr/lib64/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so.
 
</pre>
 
 
* debian/ubuntu:
 
On debian systems SSSD has to be registered for ID mapping with an higher priority than winbind:
 
 
<pre>$ sudo update-alternatives --install /etc/cifs-utils/idmap-plugin idmap-plugin /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so 50
 
 
$ update-alternatives --display idmap-plugin
 
idmap-plugin - automatischer Modus
 
beste Version des Links ist /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so
 
Link verweist zur Zeit auf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so
 
Link idmap-plugin ist /etc/cifs-utils/idmap-plugin
 
Slave idmap-plugin.8.gz ist /usr/share/man/man8/idmap-plugin.8.gz
 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cifs-utils/cifs_idmap_sss.so - Priorität 50
 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cifs-utils/idmapwb.so - Priorität 40
 
Slave idmap-plugin.8.gz: /usr/share/man/man8/idmapwb.8.gz
 
</pre>
 
 
==== AutoFS Setup ====
 
 
Because CIFS shares, in contrast to nfs-Mounts, have to be mounted directly, the root user can not simply mount them into a global folder. Instead the shares have to be initially mounted by a user who has access to the Share. To achieve this, you can use the automounter "autofs".
 
 
* RedHat/CentOS:
 
<pre>
 
$ yum install autofs
 
$ systemctl enable autofs
 
$ systemctl start autofs
 
</pre>
 
 
* debian/ubuntu:
 
<pre>
 
$ apt install autofs
 
$ systemctl enable autofs
 
$ systemctl start autofs
 
</pre>
 
 
Afterwards you configure the SDS@hd Speichervorhaben in a new map file:
 
<pre>
 
$ cat /etc/auto.sds-hd
 
<sv-acronym1> -fstype=cifs,cifsacl,multiuser,sec=krb5,cruid=${UID},vers=3.0,mfsymlinks ://lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/<sv-acronym1>
 
<sv-acronym2> -fstype=cifs,cifsacl,multiuser,sec=krb5,cruid=${UID},vers=3.0,mfsymlinks ://lsdf02.urz.uni-heidelberg.de/<sv-acronym2>
 
....
 
</pre>
 
 
You have to include the new map into the auto.master file:
 
<pre>
 
$ cat /etc/auto.master
 
[...]
 
/mnt/sds-hd /etc/auto.sds-hd
 
[...]
 
</pre>
 
 
To display all available SDS@hd shares on this machine to the users, you should enable "browser_mode":
 
<pre>
 
$ cat /etc/autofs.conf
 
[...]
 
# to display all available SDS-hd shares on this to the users
 
browse_mode=yes
 
[...]
 
</pre>
 
otherwise each share-folder will only be visible after a user has mounted.
 
 
After changing the configuration, you should restart the autofs daemon, e.g.:
 
<pre>
 
$ systemctl restart autofs
 
</pre>
 
 
Of course you can adopt all other autofs options, like timeouts, etc. to the specific needs of your environment or use any other method for dynamically mounting the CIFS shares.
 
 
==== Access the Share ====
 
 
Now each user should be able to mount a SDS@hd share, which is configured for the machine. If a share is allready mounted, other users will access this share with their own credentials without mounting again.
 
 
To get access, each user needs a valid kerberos ticket, which can be fetched with
 
<pre>
 
$ kinit hd_xy123
 
</pre>
 
 
For further information about handling kerberos ticket take a look at [[Sds-hd_nfs#access_your_data|SDS@hd kerberos]]
