Robert Watson 6966d7767a When encoding an smb name, truncate one byte earlier in order than we did previously in order to ensure it fit properly in the bufer when encoded. This prevents a debugging printf from firing if a source or destination host name for an smb mount exceeds 15 characters. MFC after: 3 days Obtained from: Apple, Inc.		2008-11-02 19:48:15 +00:00
