File mode badly shown in smbclient (want DAHR,---R,---- etc)

[Joel Hammer]

I think you could just ship the smbclient program. Samba and smbclient are
two distinct animals. Or, if you are more ambitious, and know more than me,
you could ship a doctored version of smblient which would take an additional
command line option that would use the different output string. If I have
the time, likely I won't, I'll play with it.
