Hi folks,
in our group we're working with samba on a SunOS 4.1.3 workstation and
about 30 wfwg and win95 clients for several time without any trouble
(samba-1.9.16p6 release). Now i've installed version 1.9.17p2 and got the
following problem:
I can't reach directories on an automounted volume on the Server which is
not currently mounted by changing directory to that drive on the client.
With our former version of samba this worked fine, you only had to know the
name of the automounted volume. What may be the cause of this behaviour?
I'll appreciate your help.
Included is our smb.conf:
