Originally found on samba-4.16, now I reproduce it on samba-4.18. Test works fine with samba-4.17

--- Additional comment from Pavel Filipensky on 2023-06-12 09:33:40 UTC ---

The reason is in a new samba code in samba-4.18. rpcclient dfsgetinfo no longer supports double backslash in path:


rpcclient localhost -U% -c 'dfsgetinfo \\localhost\samba-share\pointA localhost pointA''

and works only with a single backslash.

rpcclient localhost -U% -c 'dfsgetinfo \localhost\samba-share\pointA localhost pointA''

Mail to upstream was sent to samba-technical list to clarify the change.

--- Additional comment from Pavel Filipensky on 2023-08-03 07:50:58 UTC ---

The fix is part of samba-4.18.6 which will be released in the middle of August. Rhel 8.9/9.3 will be then rebased to it.
