thanks for your reply
But alas, even after dfsutil /pktflush the problem persists
The output of dfsutil /pktinfo remains the same before and after /pktflush:
a list of servers involved in the dfs.
It looks like /pktflush does not do what it pretends.

Hopefully you have alternatives, for this is indeed the right direction for
a solution in my opinion
thanks again,
