I have a script, but it is a truly mind-boggilingly ugly hack...
Its based on Smb2WWW, which just interfaces with the smbclient program.
What we really need however is for sombody to take the
FileSys::SmbClient perl module and conduct a similar program on this
basis. This would remove many of the security problems with the current
arrangment, and would also be a *much* more reliable arrangement.
