2009/139 CIFS CATIA Translation Share Property

Hi Don,

Let me try again to clarify this for you.

The translation of a '/' character would be performed if a filename read from
the file system (eg returned from VOP_READDIR) contains the '/' character.
The '/' would be translated, within smbsrv, to 0x00f8 before passing the filename
to the windows client.
A subsequent request from the windows client (e.g. to open the file) would
pass the filename containing the 0x00f8 character.

If a client passed a filename containing the '/' character this '/' character would
not be subject to CATIA translation.

CATIA translation is only performed on files accessed via the CIFS protocol,
and only if explicitly enabled (CATIA translation is disabled by default).
