[Samba] Tested: W2000 Hotfix (Q818528) with Terminal Server and Samba
I tested the Windows 2000 hotfix from Q818528 with Terminal Server and Samba. The hotfix adds the MultiUserEnabled registry parm which, when set to 1, essentially restores the MultipleUsersOnConnection behavior from NT4. With MultiUserEnabled on the Windows 2000 Terminal Server, Windows will start a new TCP session for each Terminal Server user, and Samba will start a new smbd for each TS user that mounts 1 or more Samba shares. It works as expected. The hotfix does not install on Windows 2003 Servers, though. Don't know about the plans for a 2003 hotfix. Eric Roseme Hewlett-Packard
