The problem is username and password parsing from the command line. If you 
specify it at the moment, smbget will still ask for it.

I also do not really like that -U is not for username%password. That's why I 
changed -u for update and -U for username so it is consistent with the rest of 
Samba client tools.

Let me know when I should rebase my patch. I'm happy to review more patches in 
this area.

Cheers,
