Yes, it as I said:

adminuser at stand:~$ smbclient \\\\192.168.0.33\\rowland -U 'SAMDOM\rowland'
Enter SAMDOM\rowland's password:
try "help" to get a list of possible commands.
smb: \> pwd
Current directory is \\192.168.0.33\rowland\
smb: \> q
adminuser at stand:~$ smbclient \\\\192.168.0.33\\rowland -U 'rowland'
Enter WORKGROUP\rowland's password:
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

Note: using the hostname does not work.
