Add support for mounting root of a share which redirects immediately +to DFS target. Convert string conversion functions from Unicode to more +accurately mark string length before allocating memory (which may help the +rare cases where a UTF-8 string is much larger than the UCS2 string that +we converted from). Fix endianness of the vcnum field used during +session setup to distinguish multiple mounts to same server from different +userids. Raw NTLMSSP fixed (it requires /proc/fs/cifs/experimental +flag to be set to 2, and mount must enable krb5 to turn on extended security). +Performance of file create to Samba improved (posix create on lookup +removes 1 of 2 network requests sent on file create) + Version 1.57 ------------ Improve support for multiple security contexts to the same server.
