First thing to do would be to try a more recent smbclient, like one from
2.0.7.

Hmm. I know someone has reported that he could not get any smbclient 2.0.x
to connect to some old server. Only 1.9.<latest> would work. Perhaps you
should try that?

It's almost certainly a bug (server or client) and not a configuration
problem.

'mget *' needs to read the list of files to know what to download. Since
listing the dir doesn't work it fails. get xyz knows what to download and
is thus not affected by that bug.
