Thanks.  I wondered if the group would have a problem
with the "if COMMAND; then" construct and the hack for
setting RETVAL2, so I prepared a version that's
perhaps clearer (and more Fedora-like), if less
concise ... attached.  (The test is also a bit more
strict in this new version - only the global section
from testparm output is tested for "netbios disabled =
Yes").

Cheers,
   Murthy
