Description TEJ RATHI 2023-07-13 18:08:20 UTC 
As part of the Spotlight protocol, the initial request returns a path associated with the sharename targeted by the RPC request. Samba returns the real server-side share path at this point, as well as returning the absolute server-side path of results in search queries by clients.
