You might be able to get there with WMI. The following
works on my own machine, but I'm not sure what machine
you'd need to access to list the DFS shares. I'll see
if I can persuade a friendly admin here to let me try
things out:

<code>
import wmi

c = wmi.WMI ()

for share in c.Win32_Share (Type=0):
  print share.Caption, share.Path
  for session in share.associators (
    wmi_result_class="Win32_ServerConnection"
  ):
    print "  ", session.UserName, session.ActiveTime

</code>

or you could come from the other end and enumerate
the Win32_ServerConnection collection to start with.

As I say, I'll try to get one of our admins let me
have a go with a DFS share to see if I can get
something working.
