Don't know.  I see multiple session setups a lot on a single
connection, but no evidence of connection sharing. I've also
see Win2008R2 issue the same TID for a share across separate
connections which is an interesting oddity but seems more
like a Windows implementation detail and less of a protocol
issue.

I was mind of hoping to be lazy and that someone would pop
up and say "Yeah.  Client X does this and here's a trace to
prove it." :)  I'll keep looking.  If you run across something,
I would be most interested.  Thanks much.






cheers, jerry
