I did something like that and i had a 'net3' tool. But you probably 
don't have it (you would have found it with bash autocomplete). Since 
then i've gone back to samba 2.2.8 where i don't have a net tool anyway. 
Why do yuo need it by the way ? i know i missed it to make my linux box 
join a NT domain,, but there was actually another way to do it.
