Now, I agree with you :)
Certainly, the current code allows you to call this rpc, though it
doesn't do that the way _library_ should. As you said, libsmbclient
should abstract it out, so that you don't have to worry about how it is
actually called, which is a quite complex process.

Well, honestly, I believe this kind of calls should probably be put in
libmsrpc and this is likely going to happen in Samba4.
