[PATCH] Vista and UNC paths - 3.0.24 propagate dfs errors

Hi,

Jeremy pushed a fix into 3.0.25 for bug #4592 - No share under vista

The patch forces NT_STATUS return values to be correctly propagated
through setup_dfs_referral() for "host msdfs = true" (default).

I've attached a back-port of the patch for 3.0.24, along with the
original for comparison.

Would be great to get a review if anyone has a spare moment, as the
patch needed a massage before it would apply to 3.0.24.

Cheers, Dave

Fix the DFS code to work better with Vista clients. Allow
"host msdfs = true" to be set in the [global] section
and allow Vista to see shares with "msdfs root = yes"
and "msdfs root = no" off the same server. Down
to an error message really :-).
Jeremy.
