[PATCH] Bug 10123

[Har Gagan Sahai]

Hi, 

This patch is fixing the libsmbclient issue mentioned in the bug 10123 with DFS replicated targets. The changes are done to look into the cli cache for the server + share combination using cli_cm_find() and reuse the entry for the further requests. 

Additionally this fix also checks the alive state of the connection before reuse. This is done by sending the SMBKeepAlive request using the cached cli connection handle.  

Please review this patch.  

Also please let me know if this can make into the 3.6.3 version of samba. 

Regards, 
Har Gagan Sahai
