OK, I now have working SMB2 FSCTL_GET_SHADOW_COPY_DATA client
code, but for SMB2 it seems that Twrp contexts are required
to get at the shadow copies on Windows (I can list 'em, but
doing path/@GMT-YYYY etc. fails with OBJECT_PATH_NOT_FOUND).
Shall I add code into the SMB2 client open that converts
a /@GMT-YYYY... trailing path into a Twrp token ?
What do you think ?
Jeremy.
