[Samba] smbd/vfs.c:932(check_reduced_name) after upgrade
After upgrading from samba3-3.3.10-40.el5.i386.rpm to samba3-3.4.7-42.el5.i386.rpm, I'm seeing a lot of [2010/05/05 11:06:42, 1] smbd/vfs.c:932(check_reduced_name) reduce_name: couldn't get realpath for addrbook/CVS [2010/05/05 11:06:42, 1] smbd/vfs.c:932(check_reduced_name) reduce_name: couldn't get realpath for beta/CVS [2010/05/05 11:06:42, 1] smbd/vfs.c:932(check_reduced_name) reduce_name: couldn't get realpath for buildproj/CVS ... messages in log.smbd (and in the logwatch reports). Is that expected in 3.4.7? It didn't happen in 3.3, so what has changed? Moray. "To err is human.? To purr, feline"

See bug 7409 for the simple fix. Jeremy.
