Hmmm, here is what ldd bin/net shows:

[root at richardsharpe source]# ldd bin/net
	libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0x40024000)
	libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40036000)
	libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40039000)
	libcom_err.so.3 => /usr/kerberos/lib/libcom_err.so.3 (0x40050000)
	libk5crypto.so.3 => /usr/kerberos/lib/libk5crypto.so.3
(0x40053000)
	libkrb5.so.3 => /usr/kerberos/lib/libkrb5.so.3 (0x40068000)
	libgssapi_krb5.so.2 => /usr/kerberos/lib/libgssapi_krb5.so.2
(0x400d0000)
	libpopt.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpopt.so.0 (0x400e5000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400eb000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

And here is what happens when I run the command:

[root at richardsharpe source]# ./bin/net user -p=445

Invalid option õ (-11)
No command: ./bin/net
  net time		to view or set time information
  net lookup		to lookup host name or ip address
  net user		to manage users

So, there does seem to be a problem. Not sure what yet.
