Never worked like that for me.  In fact, I didn\'t even know it was documented.
Now that I know, I might give it a chance... ;)

As Mark says, there might be some delay in letting Samba handle it itself.  This
will not be sufficiently deterministic when you\'re working with a problem and
trying different options to fix it.

Regardless, when I enacted the \"use client driver\" parameter in smb.conf, even
doing an \"smb restart\" (which I assume does a kill -HUP under the covers) was
not sufficient to make the change take effect.  I had to stop/start.

Cheers,
Vic
