Trying to write a test program using libsmbclient.

[Ray Van Dolson]

Thanks for the response.  I'm having some troubles with segfaults using
the sources in the testsuite directory.

I created the .smb directory and the smb.conf as specified and compiled
for example telldir_4.c and called it as follows:

./a.out WORKGROUP username password smb://COMPUTER/Directory

I get a segmentation fault.  Simply using a URI in the form of //COMPUTER
returns a -1 for the directory handle and an error of "9".  I ran gdb over
the executable and it appears that it is segfaulting when smbc_opendir()
is called.  I'm assuming the smb:// form of the URI is the proper one, yet
it seems to barf out on me when this is called.

smbclient on the other hand works fine, so it seems my Samba compile is
working fine.  Any ideas?
