The "nodfs" option was added by this patch:
http://
which went in right after 2.6.27 came out so will be in 2.6.28. The
patch is small and could be added to this 2.6.27 distro kernel easily
enough. Apparently most distros did not ship the two problematic
Samba versions on their server, or have done a mandatory upgrade,
which is why we don't see this problem (server parsing of dfs paths)
more often.
