This is the kernel module for smb/cifs mount.(windows shares)
You need it for example for this: hxxp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756158
I didn't found a compatible cifs.ko for samsung s anywhere so I had to compile it.
[recommended] cifs.zip - Eclair(2.1)
[recommended] froyo.zip - Froyo(2.2) - cifs.ko & slow-work.ko (insmod slow-work.ko first)
cifs_froyo_slow_work.zip - Froyo(2.2) - cifs & slow_work in one .ko Do NOT use this because its buggy (slow, reboots when rmmod)
could you pls explain what is this for? Experts needn't, but there're lots of newbies hangin aroud here, like me . Thanks
It's a kind of file system like ext2/3/4, for example.

You have my gratitude
Very usefull! thank you!
i'm back, when i'm trying an insmod i have cifs.ko : invalid module format
i use a jm5 samset 1.9f roms.
I use jm5 (mimocam's fix + root) and I've compiled the module from source-code provided by samsung (opensource.samsung.com) using arm-none-eabi-(Sourcery G++ from codesourcery.com). Maybe samset used something else which is incompatible.

Setenza said he'll add Cifs in the next SamSet release.
can you make one that is compatible with the Vibrant version? Either stock Vibrant kernel or any working kernel compatible.
Greatly appreciated
I've tried the module, but also get the "invalid module format" message.
However, I'm using JM5 + root using kernel 2.6.29 built on Fri Jul 30 15:12:44 KST 2010 armv71 GNU/Linux
Can you tell us for which kernel you've build this module?

I've compiled for kernel 2.6.29.2 using samsung's sources
my phone says he has kernel 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
I'm attaching the module compiled with latest toolchain I could find(binutils-2.20.1, gcc-4.5.1,newlib-1.18.0)

No idea if will work bc I don't have a Vibrant.
In the mean time I've also compiled my own version of the cifs.ko module.
I've used the Samsung sources and used the Sourcery G++ Lite 2010q1-188 for ARM EABI toolchain.
I've only enabled cifs in the kernel config and compiled the module.
I've attached the compiled result.
Thanks for your effort. I'm using JM5 +samset1.9f and couldn't get the cifsmanager to work with all 3 of your cif.ko . I've just dont know why the size the last 2 versions are huge compare to the first one? Thanks anyway. Hope you can come up with something.

thank you very much. It's working on my stock vibrant kernel! YOU ROCK SIR! (using attached vibrant.zip)
Now I can stream all my media files!
(I'm vary curious how you did this, if you can point me to some guides that would be awesome, (I can write some C/C++ code))
Works great for me - had been looking around to see if anybody had compiled the CIFS module for the Galaxy S. I started reading up on how to cross compile kernel modules myself but didn't get very far.
Anyway; I have a slight problem. while mounting and browsing from the terminal as root and through adb as non-root work, I can't seem to browse in any mounted folders actually on the device using either the stock 'My Files' or Astro which was what I was aiming to do.
What I do to mount said:
\\\\192.168.0.0\\Directory /sdcard/smbshare -o user=Username,pass=password,uid=1000,gid=1015
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Without setting the user and group settings I can't browse unprivileged as everything in the share is 'owned' by root.
I also tried using mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.0/Directory /sdcard/smbshare with the same result.
Anybody else having a similar problem? Maybe it's just something obscure about my setup.

Sorry for the noob questions:
- Can you please give more details on how to enable cifs in the kernel config?
- Is there a specific plate to copy the cifs.ko module?
- Is there a simple (one-click) way to install this?
- is the module dependent on the kernel version? has to be exactly the same?
- is there a easy way to check if it's working (I'm using cifsmanager and get some error saying cannot access device / folder not found -not sure about the exact message text)
Thanks in advance
Hi everyone, I use CM7 roms (keep switching between various flavours, just about to flash CM7 RC3 by kali http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957336
My question is this. How do I get 'TUN' module support in a CM7 ROM. The reason I (think) I need it is because OpenVPN asks for it. I want to use OpenVPN to connect to my work. I've seen at least 3 kernels which support TUN, but they all work with Sense ROMs.
So, at present stage, would it not be possible for me to get TUN support in a CM7 ROM?
TIA.
Bump...
Anybody? Any other solution to connect to an openvpn server?

Tun Support for Gingerbread on Galaxy Tab
Hi everybody,
i have installed Gingerbread with CF-Root from Chainfire and everything is fine. But i need TUN support in the Kernel or by Module. So it is possible to make this running on that CF-Root-Kernel ?
I have start to build my own Kernel but when i load the zImage the Tab always restart with no funktion... When i load only the Build tun.ko module in then CF-Root-Kernel i got the message from insmod:
insmod: can't insert 'tun.ko': invalid module format
dmesg:
tun: exports duplicate symbol tun_get_socket (owned by kernel)
TAB-DATA:
Mod= GT-P1000
Firmware= 2.3.3
Basisbandversion=P1000XXJPZ
Kernel=2..3.7 [email protected] #2
Buildnumber=Gingerbread.XXJQ1
Hope anybody can help me.
Thanks
I am trying to use cifsmanager, but note2 doesn't have cifs.ko for it to work. Is there any existing standalone cifs.ko will work on note2?
I'm also looking for cifs support for note 2. I only saw one mentioned that a custom kernel already has support for cifs but it was for the international version. I hope somebody compiles one for tmo note 2.
Hey Guys/Girls,
Could really use some help. For the life of me I can't compile a kernel module driver ath9k for my USB wireless adapter TL-WN722N. So it can be used by insmod on my rooted Galaxy Note 8.0 GT-N5110 on Kernel 3.0.31 Build BMC9 running android 4.1.2. The source code is available at on Samsung open source library and is listed as the GT-N5110 NA (north america) model. If some one could help me please? I would be forever in your debt... :good:

I'm having the exact same issues, i need the rt2x00 modules (however i do have a TL-WN722N so ath9k could work too). It seems Samsung has made this near impossible. I have literally been working around the clock with other developers to figure out what the hell is going on. Civato seems like our only hope at the moment however (not many devs for the note 8). Anyway, if anybody is willing to help I need the modules for the GT-N5110_JB_Opensource.zip (can be found on the samsung open source aswell)
cheers

I am using an S4 Mini i9195 with stock I9195XXUBML1 rooted and Vikinger kernel.
I have tried to mount network share with both CIFS manager and mount manager, always getting "mount: Invalid argument" error.
It seems that cifs.ko, md4.ko, nfs.ko modules based on the kernel are necessary in order to get smb or nfs mount.
Can anyone manage to compile the necessary kernel modules?
Visuality Systems CIFS team provides 24/7 support
Try to contact cifs.com
Good luck

@M_J_Nazari Could you help on this? Amestris Kernel is the best kernel for 9192, but it does not suport cifs/nfs. :crying:
