Sharity Connects You to Windows File ServersSharity is a client for the CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol, formerly known as SMB (Server Message Block). This is the file-sharing protocol used by Windows NT, 95, 98, 2, ME, Windows for Workgroups, OS/2, Samba and many others. Sharity mounts these servers in your file system.

Mounting means that you can open files directly from the server with any application you like, as if they were on a local disk. Other clients (such as smbclient from the Samba suite) provide only an ftp-like interface where you can copy files to and from the share but cannot open them directly on the server.

Here are some key features of "Sharity":
  • Access files on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2, 2003, XP, Samba, AppleShare IP, FacetWin and other CIFS servers.
  • Provides network browsing facility similar to Windows' "Network Neighborhood".
  • Runs on almost any Unix operating system (including Mac OS X). Click here for a complete list
  • Easy Installation.
  • Faster than NFS servers for Windows.
  • Shares are mounted in the file system: You can open files directly from the server.
  • Seamless integration with your operating system Environment: The Graphical User Interface asks for passwords and is used to configure Sharity.
  • Source-code available for download. Download Source Code Now
  • Encrypted password transmission.
  • Can be compiled with OpenSSL for secure encrypted data transfer.

    Limitations:
  • There are a couple of conditions where you can use Sharity for free. Students can register a regular license for free. If you run Mac OS X, Linux or FreeBSD at home, our binary package for these platforms (beginning with version 2.4) has a "Sharity Single" license built-in. All others may use Sharity in demo-mode for free. Demo-mode is limited to 3 levels of directory hierarchy.

    What's New:
  • Changing the modification date of a file did not work with some servers. Fixed.
  • Fixed various bugs in handling of Access Control Lists (ACLs).
  • Various improvements in browsing network resources in /CIFS/entire_network.
  • Kerberos module detects "Global Catalog" server more reliably now.
  • Fixed possible deadlock when unmounting stale mounts.
  • New implementation of automatic mounts in /CIFS. This new implementation is easier for the kernel to handle.
  • New implementation of Distributed File System (DFS): DFS redirections are now implemented as symbolic links into the automounting browser at /CIFS.
  • Inheritance flags in Access Control Lists (ACLs) can be edited now.
  • Various enhancements of the command line interface: More control over mounts and logins for root, new option to log out from all servers and shares with one command.
