Version 1.55
------------
+Add "forcemandatorylock" mount option to allow user to use mandatory

Various fixes to make delete of open files behavior more predictable
(when delete of an open file fails we mark the file as "delete-on-close"
in a way that more servers accept, but only if we can first rename the

nodfs Disable DFS (global name space support) even if the
server claims to support it. This can help work around
a problem with parsing of DFS paths with Samba 3.0.24 server.
