[linux-cifs-client] Re: attempting to connect to Windows server as different users

[Naidu Bollineni]

I haven't found any fix that can really handle this situation of
multiple users known to server(thru AD or some other means) connecting
to it simultaneously.

What I see in header_assemble() in misc.c is handling multiple UNIX UIDs
under the multiuser_mount case, and I am not sure if that applies to
this problem.

 

I still wonder if Windows servers ever allow it, and if there is any
Windows special edition that supports it.

I remember fixing a bug in the case in which signing was enabled and
multiple users were mounted to the same server.
This was fixed in cifs version 1.32
