This means running 'symlink' against +both Windows and Samba now uses the same paramter ordering in both +cases. + +The usage message for this command has also been improved to remove confusion. + + +Changes since 4.7.3: +-------------------- + +o Jeremy Allison <jra@samba.org> + * BUG 13140: s3: smbclient: Implement 'volume' command over SMB2. + * BUG 13171: s3: libsmb: Fix valgrind read-after-free error in + cli_smb2_close_fnum_recv(). + * BUG 13172: s3: libsmb: Fix reversing of oldname/newname paths when creating + a reparse point symlink on Windows from smbclient. + +o Timur I.
