smbclient and tar changes

[Richard Sharpe]

Hi,

well, I have uncovered a bug or two in my changes, so I have more work to
do. I forgot about Longlink files falling at the end of the buffer of
records that had been read in. At the moment I have kludged it up, but I
need a proper fix, which will require a little restructure of the code,
perhaps to be a little more like gnutar.

I have also changed the way that directories are created so that if you are
restoring to a different share, the directory path is created from the
ground up. At present, clitar objects if the top of the tree does not exist.

I have also noticed that file creation times do not seem to be restored.
clitar puts a creation time in the CREAT SMB, but I wonder if this is being
ignored. It also uses dostime3 or some such. Can anyone comment?

I am updating the man page on smbclient as well to point out some of the
things that are already possible with smbclient and the things that will be
possible when I finish.

Finally, does anyone have any suggestions re further fixes they might like
to see in clitar.c

Regards
