If your friend has been aggressively googling, they have probably

seen both the Wikipedia page and the Samba wiki page on the subject,

for anyone else stumbling on this in the future:
Wikipedia says that in Samba contexts, the technology in question is
called
"MSDFS." Googling that produces the Samba wiki page here:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Distributed_File_System_(DFS)
From there, I'm not seeing anything "special" for the client side...
Just
lots and lots of discussion about the server side and it's limitations.
And
not being experienced myself...
Anyway, maybe the terms "MSDFS" and "MS-DFS" and "Samba user space
project"
will help find something...
Thank you. I read something about links and turning off unix style
links, but that
only seems to apply if Samba is providing the DFS server. I'm guessing
our problem
is having solid host resolution...
