   <description>in VFS/smb.php _execute you try to check error messages even if there is no error code.

As i use Version 3.0.28-1.el5_2.1 of samba smbclient the result of checking a path wether it is a directory or not yields only this message. My Patch is:



649,651d648

&lt;             } elseif (strpos($line, &#039;not a directory&#039;) !== false) {

&lt;                 $err = _(&quot;not a directory&quot;);

&lt;                 break;

I think you can set this to status &#039;Not a bug&#039; - i found a bogus return result of a perl script wrapping around smbclient was actually the cause - it returned the result of a call to system(&#039;smbclient&#039;,@ARGV) but should return system(...) &gt;&gt; 8. Now it works without a patch to VFS/smb.php as expected.</description>
