[Samba] Reshare of a Samba mount

[will ryder]

Having a little bit of trouble understanding how my configuration might work.

Having seen this :

http://communities.netapp.com/thread/3616

Does this mean that the  DFS root is on the RHEL and NetApp is a leaf node ?

Would anyone have a sample configuration for what i would like to do or could suggest one?

Thanks

Will
