vuids & tids

[Nigel Williams]

Thanks,  I'm convinced for now.  So the tid represents one resource in a
pool shared between a groups of users.  Any of the users can remove a tid
from the pool or add a new one to the pool at any time?  There must be some
coordination between the users.  What is the best way to experiment with
this?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. That's why the vuid
exists at all in the smb header. If the uid didn't change
under a tid then the vuid would be unneccessary.
