Hello,This is my first time posting to this list, and I hope I am not breaking any rules. I have been attempting to get the cifs kernel modules to mount the win2k8 dfs at my workplace. I did finally manage to get the dfs to mount after modifying the kernel module with this small patch @@ -3109,6 +3112,7 @@ cifs_sb, false); if (!refrc) { referral_walks_count++; + rc=0; goto try_mount_again; } } Although I dont 100% understand what I did, as I had a hard time following the goto statements, I have a feeling that on initial setup it would follow the DFS referral, however ultimately fail as it exited because rc was still set to -6. So now For my second problem. Within the dfs tree there is a referral to //server/share$/folder. My user has access to //server/share$/folder, however do not have access to //server/$share. While following the referral the cifs module does a QUERY_PATH_INFO on \\server\share$\folder, and then is followed up by a QUERY_PATH_INFO on \\server\share$\ which rightfully returns a STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED from the server. Traversing the same path with smbclient \\server\share$ is never queried.Perhaps I am doing something wrong? I have been attempting to connect to this dfs from linux for about 2 years,and this is the closest I have gotten, so any help would be appreciated. terry
