smbsh on HP-UX (SAMBA digest 1962)

I tried linking smbwrapper.so directly into bash, but that only works for
bash and not any of the subprocesses it runs. That is bash can cd into the
/smb directory and I can do an echo * to list files. But if I run a system
command (ls, emacs) they can't see the /smb directory because they aren't
linked with smbwrapper.so.

I'm pretty sure (got this from a support engineer) that HP-UX does 
not have such an environment variable.

Try it and give us feedback.
