/* From own experiments and replies from the Cygwin mailing list,
we're now trying to figure out how to determine remote file
systems which are capable of returning persistent inode
numbers. It seems that NT4 NTFS, when accessed remotly, and
some other remote file systems return unreliable values in
nFileIndex. The common factor of these unreliable remote FS
seem to be that FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS isn't set, even though
this should have nothing to do with inode numbers.
An exception is Samba, which seems to return valid inode numbers
without having the FILE_SUPPORTS_OBJECT_IDS flag set. So we're
testing for the flag values returned by a 3.x Samba explicitely
for now. */
