The Samba HOWTO only gives an example of the basic case where the link happens to be directly to the 'share folder' of the destination i.e -------------------------------- root# cd /export/dfsroot root# ln -s msdfs:storageA\\shareA linka in smb.conf... [global] netbios name = GANDALF host msdfs = yes [dfs] path = /export/dfsroot msdfs root = yes ------------------------------- But if you try instead: root# ln -s msdfs:storageA\\shareA\mydata linka Then if you mount \\GANDALF\dfs using smbfs - you can't get i...
