178This tool is part of the

180suite\&.
181.PP
182cifs\&.upcall is a userspace helper program for the linux CIFS client filesystem\&. There are a number of activities that the kernel cannot easily do itself\&. This program is a callout program that does these things for the kernel and then returns the result\&.
183.PP
184cifs\&.upcall is generally intended to be run when the kernel calls request\-key(8)
185for a particular key type\&. While it can be run directly from the command\-line, it\'s not generally intended to be run that way\&.
186.SH "OPTIONS"
187.PP
188\-c
189.RS 4
190When handling a kerberos upcall, use a service principal that starts with "cifs/"\&. The default is to use the "host/" service principal\&.

197.SH "CONFIGURATION FOR KEYCTL"
198.PP
199cifs\&.upcall is designed to be called from the kernel via the request\-key callout program\&. This requires that request\-key be told where and how to call this program\&. The current cifs\&.upcall program handles two different key types:
200.PP
201cifs\&.spnego
202.RS 4
203This keytype is for retrieving kerberos session keys
204.RE
205.PP
206dns_resolver
207.RS 4
208This key type is for resolving hostnames into IP addresses
209.RE
210.PP
211To make this program useful for CIFS, you\'ll need to set up entries for them in request\-key\&.conf(5)\&. Here\'s an example of an entry for each key type:
