[Samba] Trailing backslash issue with Windows Shares

[Mac]

Hi there,


>> I have Samba 3.0.25b running as a PDC.  When opening a share on a

>Yeah, known bug someone reported - will be fixed for 3.0.25c.

Whilst looking at other things, we've seen Wireshark traces where the
client appears to ask for:-


	\\server\shar

before actually asking for

	\\server\share


Could this be the same issue ?
