It was set to 100 so that desktop Linux users could
use the file manager to right click and "Share As.." by
default without configuring the server. Did that back

Old bug return from the past... i'm the initial submitter.

Bug is still in samba 4.5 (louis packages), in DC and in DM mode.


Manpage says that 'usershare max shares' is just at '0' as
default, but
i'll give it a try and report back.
