I think it indeed is the same problem an in 90950: The samba share
cannot be accessed from a windows machine either. (Checked from a
virtual machine.)

But I'm unsure if it is really samba that were to be blamed: The
smb.comf manpage
(http://de.samba.org/samba/docs/man/manpages-3/smb.conf.5.html) shows no
option "no/yes" for "msdfs proxy" at all. Samba would not be held
responsible for interpreting a misconfigured smb.conf! (Where it might
be helpful to have samba check for non-standard complying settings and
to skip them by default.)

However, some yet unknown package seems to set "msdfs proxy = no" for
every share when automatically upgrading from Egdy to Feisty. Thus, it
might be no samba error (no misimplementation of the samba standard) but
this unknown third part package causing the samba server to fail.

Why I would judge this to be rather critical is the fact that this error
only becomes visible after automatic upgrade to Feisty on server
systems, while the vast majority of Feisty beta testers (for obvious
reasons) will have done testing on clients!
