Setting up CIFS Access
Although you cannot globally disable CIFS as you can for NFS and FTP, you can
allow or disallow CIFS access on a per-share basis. The CIFS Networking
Configuration page lets you specify the length of time CIFS connections to the
NSS can be idle before being automatically disconnected.
To set up the idle disconnect time for a CIFS connection to the NSS:
STEP 1
From the Manager Menu, click Shares
CIFS Setup.
The CIFS Networking Configuration page appears.
STEP 2
From the dropdown box, select the amount of time that the CIFS connection can
be idle, after which it is disconnected.
STEP 3
Click Update.
