[Bug 286828] Re: Access to samba<3.0.26 shares using CIFS is broken on 8.10

Since the Samba servers 3.0.24 through 3.0.25a which exhibited this
problem may have had problems with parsing a "DFS path" (in this case
for a path based call to set the file server), could someone check if
the write problems go away if the mount is done with the "nodfs" mount
option (would require fairly recent cifs client, perhaps even 2.6.27
kernel, to use that mount option) - that changes how the client sends
paths from "\\server\share\dir\file" to "\dir\file" and may work around
the problem if the server bug was caused by the processing of dfs paths
