+Lowercase DOS filenames on LONG namespace volume
+CONFIG_NCPFS_SMALLDOS
+ Saying Y here will convert every filename with creator/owner DOS
+ namespace on NetWare servers to lowercase characters as silently
+ kernel does when you mount NetWare file server volumes with DOS
+ namespace without OS2/LONG namespace support. Saying N here will
+ give you these filenames with uppercase characters.
+
+ This is only cosmetic option because of OS2/LONG namespace is
+ case insensitive. The only major reason for this option is
+ backward compatibility when you want to do step from DOS to
+ OS2/LONG namespace support. Long filenames (created by Win95)
+ will not be affected.
+
+ This option does not solve a problem that filenames appear
+ differently in Linux box and in MS environment because of MS
+ does an additional conversions on client side. You can achieve
+ simillar effects enabling ncpfs option "Allow using of Native
+ Language Support" below.

+Allow using of Native Language Support
+CONFIG_NCPFS_NLS
+ Allows you to use codepages and I/O charsets for file name translation
+ between file system on server and input/output. This may be useful,
+ if you want to access to the server with other operating systems,
+ e.g. Windows 95. See also NLS for more Information.

+ To select codepages and I/O charsets use ncpfs-2.2.0.13 or newer.

+Symbolic links and mode permission bits
+CONFIG_NCPFS_EXTRAS
+ This enables the use of symbolic links and an execute permission
+ bit on NCPFS. The file server need not have long name space or NFS
+ name space loaded for these to work, they are stored using rarely
+ found combinations of Hidden, System and Shared flags.
+
+ To use the new attributes, you are recommended to use the flags
+ '-f 600 -d 755' on the ncpmount commandline.
