+Packet signatures
+CONFIG_NCPFS_PACKET_SIGNING
+  NCP allows to sign packets for stronger security. If you want
+  security, say Y. Normal users can leave it off. To be able to use

+Proprietary file locking
+CONFIG_NCPFS_IOCTL_LOCKING

+Clear remove/delete inhibit when needed
+CONFIG_NCPFS_STRONG
+  Allows manipulation of files flagged as Delete or Rename Inhibit.
+  To use this feature you must mount volumes with the ncpmount parameter
+  "-s" (ncpfs-2.0.12 and newer). Say Y unless you are not mounting
+  volumes with -f 444.

+Use NFS namespace when available
+CONFIG_NCPFS_NFS_NS

+CONFIG_NCPFS_OS2_NS

+CONFIG_NCPFS_MOUNT_SUBDIR
+  Allows you to mount not only whole servers or whole volumes, but also
