Porting to RTOS

Well I went on a vacation after this hence never clarified.
Actually, I want to run a Samba Client rather than a smbd server deamon or
nmbd deamon .
So is there a Samba client which does just File/Print sharing among remote
machines. I don't know if I'm being clear here. 

Even if I port SMBCLIENT, I'll have no File and print share capability since
I'm not running the smbd and nmbd servers to provide SMB/CIFS services to
clients . So this basically is my question. Is there a Samba Client
capability in Samba Suite. 
I'm totally new to Samba and the SMB/Windows world hence this might be not
be a appropriate question , but any answer would be great .

Thanks again,

//Satish

You need nmbd as well for NetBIOS services.  smbclient is 
obviously needed need for the server side of things.
I'm assuming you already knew that though.
