   The SMB FST for GS/OS   
   By Stephen Heumann   
      
   The SMB FST allows an Apple IIGS to access file servers using the SMB   
   protocol. The SMB FST is free and open source, but contributions to support   
   this project are welcome.   
      
   System Requirements:   
      
   - An Apple IIGS with System 6.0.1 or later   
   - Marinetti 3.0b11 or later   
   - A Marinetti-compatible network interface (such as an Ethernet card)   
   - If you are using an Uthernet or Uthernet II, please be sure to install the   
   latest version of their Marinetti link layers   
      
   [...]   
      
   Compatibility   
   The SMB FST is compatible with Windows, macOS, Samba, Solaris, and illumos   
   file servers. Using a modern, currently-supported version of the server   
   software is strongly recommended. See the Server Configuration section below   
   for information on how to configure these servers to work with the SMB FST.   
      
   The SMB FST may also work with other servers that support the SMB 2 or SMB 3   
   protocols, but they have not been tested.   
      
      
   [...]   
      
      
   General Server Requirements:   
      
   In order to work with the SMB FST, a server must meet the following   
   requirements. The default configurations of Windows, macOS, Samba, Solaris,   
   and illumos servers meet most of these requirements (except as mentioned   
   above), but if you have customized your server configuration, you should   
   check that it follows them.   
      
   The SMB FST supports SMB protocol versions 2.0.2 through 3.0.2. The server   
   must support at least one of these versions.   
      
   The server must support NTLMv2 authentication.   
      
   The server must not require encryption of SMB messages.   
      
   The server may require message signing, but this substantially reduces   
   performance, so you may wish to disable it.   
      
   The SMB FST represents file types and resource forks on the server using   
   alternate data streams (ADSs), in a manner compatible with macOS. In order   
   to fully support these features, the server must support ADSs. The SMB FST   
   can connect to servers without this support, but some operations will not   
   work on them.   
      
   The SMB FST can use an Apple-specific protocol extension to improve the   
   speed of listing directory contents, so this should be enabled if it is   
   available on the server.   
      
   The SMB control panel detects servers on the local network using multicast   
   DNS Service Discovery (mDNS-SD), so servers must support this in order to be   
   detected. You can still connect to servers that are not detected by manually   
   entering their address.
