[linux-cifs-client] smbmount symbolic links not followed

[Naidu Bollineni]

Is there an issue with FindNext2 call?

It doesn't add the bit CIFS_SEARCH_CONTINUE_FROM_LAST to the searchFlags
value, and thus, terminating prematurely in at least one of my tests.

If I add it, then it lists all the files in the directory. I see this
issue exist in 1.34 release too.

Smbfs does have this bit in it's call on the wire.

What is the kernel version?

If 2.6.9 or later kernel have you tried using cifs vfs instead?
