Sure, I agree with that. However, I think that the right way to fix the
original problem is for libsmbclient to use the cli_srvsvc routines when
it is asked to do an opendir on smb://<server>/ and fall back to the
current RAP approach if the cli_srvsvc routine fails.

He should not have to code that stuff himself. The library should abstract
it out.

Actually, come to think of it, it might be interesting if a bunch of
the Win32 Netr and on on apis were implemented in libsmbclient or another
library.
