[Samba] Problem while accessing DFS links using smbclient !!

[Avinash]

Hi All ,

I am trying to browse through the DFS links using smbclient utility.
I have gone through the previous archives, there I found few related
threads, but could not get concrete information.

Could any one of you please let me know how should I go about handling this
issue ?
Here are the details of smbclient that I am using :

[avinash at avinash test]$ which smbclient
/usr/bin/smbclient
[avinash at avinash test]$ /usr/bin/smbclient -V
Version 3.0.24-7.fc6

[avinash at avinash test]$ smbclient //172.17.1.23/saroot -U test2

Has this been fixed 3.026a ?
