Rdesktop 1.6.0 and Windows Server 2008 SP2

We were having an issue using Rdesktop from Linux RDP-ing to Windows Server 2008 SP2 boxes. Each time we would try and use shared path or device, the Windows box would freak-out and drop the share.

On the linux side, rdesktop would report "NOT IMPLEMENTED: IRP Query Volume Information class: 0x7".

Turns out, there's a patch for this (that works) and it hasn't made into an rdesktop release yet. The patch is available HERE.

Or, for you convenience I've attached the patched source, ready to compile.
