[cifs-protocol] OPEN_ANDX undocumented flag with 19 word count response

2009-12-17 Thread Zachary Loafman

No problem! Some information on CIFS/SMB (both the technical and legal definitions, which differ) was presented at the Sept '09 SNIA Plugfest, and it may take me a bit to obtain the presentation materials - hopefully that won't take too long. I will keep you advised! Regards, Bill Wesse MCSE,
