Does QNTC still have the issue where accessing a system with long share
names can have sporadic results?

For example, if I attach to a Windows server with something like
/qntc/myserver/myshare

But myserver also has these shares:
- I love big names and for this I cannot lie
- once upon a time in a galaxy far away
- when I was there I wanted to be here but now that Im here I want to be
there
then simply accessing
/qntc/myserver/myshare can work sometimes and other times not.


Notes:
... the share name can be up to 12 characters long...

The share name can be up to 12 characters long.
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_73/ifs/rzaaxntpath.htm

Ensure that all Windows based shares are 12 characters or less in length.
This is a permanent restriction as it causes the Windows server to return
a 3406 error code from the SMB transaction.

I've got one server where 12 of the shares have the first 25 characters of
their share names in common.
