AZSMB mount helper

AZSMB is a Linux mount helper for Azure Files SMB shares. It delegates to the standard CIFS mount path while applying Azure Files defaults and supporting storage-account-key and managed-identity authentication.

Status

This project is under active development and is not ready for production use.

Mount examples

Storage-account-key authentication uses a root-readable CIFS credentials file:

.file.core.windows.net/ /mnt/azurefiles \ -o credentials=/etc/smbcredentials/ .cred"> sudo mount -t azsmb \ // < storage-account > .file.core.windows.net/ < share > /mnt/azurefiles \ -o credentials=/etc/smbcredentials/ < storage-account > .cred

AZSMB can also create the per-account credential file from one or both storage account keys.…
