== Decode version from vers=default out of mount options ==

Sometimes you see from a mounte share jus vers=default like this:
<SyntaxHighLight lang=bash>
# grep cifs /proc/self/mounts
//cifs.server.de/cifsshare /media/cifs cifs rw,relatime,vers=default,cache=strict,username=s_ndr_mgt_saw,domain=AD,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=172.16.42.12,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=4194304,wsize=4194304,bsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1 0 0
</SyntaxHighLight>

To see the real version you need to take a look at <i>/proc/fs/cifs/DebugData</i>
<SyntaxHighLight lang=bash highlight=11>
# cat  /proc/fs/cifs/DebugData

In this example you can see the <i>Dialect</i> in line 11 (highlighted) where we can see we are using SMB 3.02.
