Yeah, I'm going to work on fixing the smbclient thing
today. I got a message from someone at Corel that helps
in tracking down the problem (I *love* this Open Source
stuff :-) :-).

I'm glad you got the cli up and running, I'll send out
a patch for 2.0.6 (and check the fix into 2.0.7pre2) once
I have it.

Cheers,
