Update of /data/cvs/samba/source/smbd
In directory samba:/tmp/cvs-serv16150

Modified Files:
	reply.c trans2.c 
Log Message:
3 changes:

1) use lp_fstype() instead of FSTYPE_STRING
2) added SMB_SEARCH_BITS to the TconX reply options (in vwv3). I noted
   that NT sets this (undocumented) bit and setting it helped get
   autorun from exported cdroms working.
3) fixed volume labels in QFSINFO level 258.

I made these changes while getting the Encyclopadia Brittanica CD to
run from a Samba drive. (I bought it for Sue yesterday). The first
and second changes allowed Samba to export CDs with autorun info and
the client will autorun it when mounted. There are all sorts of nasty
implications in that that perhaps we can go into on
samba-technical. Think about creating some autorun info in /tmp/ then
waiting for people to mount it as scratch space ...

The last change was because EB wanted the right volume label. The code
we had used a non unicode volume label but tests with W95->NT4 showed
that it has to be unicode. There was a note in the code from Jeremy
saying that he thought it should _not_ be unicode. Jeremy, can you
explain why? It certainly didn't work as non-unicode (the client
displays a garbage volume label) and when I fixed it to use unicode it
all worked from Win95.

and in case anyone is interested EB98 now works fine from a Samba
drive :)
