samba - Jun 2002 - FAST_SHARE_MODES

Hi,

How do I enable FAST_SHARE_MODES?

In UNIX_INSTALL.html I found

(...)
See also the FAST_SHARE_MODES option in the Makefile
(...)

but in my Makefile I didn't found this Flag, even though
I read somewhere that this Flag is set as default when compiled
for Linux systems. Where and how exactly do I set this Flag?

I have a Linux SuSE 8.0 on x86, but when I call 'smbclient -L
localhost',
the output prints 'OS=[Unix]', I wonder if this is correct, basically
Linux is Unix, of course, but I expected 'OS=[Linux]', though.

Many thanks for your help in advance.

I this that just means the doco is years out of date, ignore it.

I think you have much bigger things to worry about then if your SMB 
client incluces 'Unix' in the protocol string...
