Yes. MS-SMB2 is also wrong :-).

I have test code that proves FLUSH works against any directory
handle opened with FILE_ADD|DIRECTORY_ADD access mask granted.

(Steve thought this might be special cased to just the root
directory handle on a share, this turns out not to be the
case - any directory handle with the required access works
OK).

We need to deal with the protocol as it really is,
not as the documentation would like it to be :-).

Jeremy.
