DartFS is available via two different protocols: NFS and SMB. Linux can mount DartFS volumes with either but for Linux workstations we recommend using SMB because it is less complicated. Older Linux systems supported only the SMB1 protocol, which is not supported by DartFS for security reasons.  This includes RHEL6/Centos6/Ubuntu14 and earlier.

Filesystem rules for SMB protocol apply to DartFS mounted on client computers using SMB. There are restrictions on file naming, and limitations on preservation of file metadata, and potential issues with case sensitivity. In addition, there are filename extensions Dartmouth has chosen to block on the Isilon because of Windows malware.
