Just had a look at the perl scripts you've done, and like me you tend
to do very C-like perl! I think thats perfectly fine, as I find it
very easy to read :-)

I think that getting basic windows->samba testing will be very simple,
as you already have code to remotely run scripts on the windows
box. The GUI scripting will be harder, but lets wait on that till
everything else works.
