Re: Samba function test

[Jim Myers]

Andrew, you mentioned that Samba should produce the same error codes as a Windows remote share.
Here's an interesting case:  The test below runs correctly on native NTFS, but fails as shown below with a remote Win2K share.
Samba produces the same error code as the remote case which means it fails IFSTEST as well.

So it appears even Microsoft doesn't produce identical results with local and remote NTFS disks/shares.
