smbclient -M -> NT_STATUS_PIPE_BROKEN

[Yann Ormanns]

Good morning list,
I'd like to send a message from a Linux system (Gentoo) to Windows 7 
Ultimate by using "smbclient -NM vm_windows7 -I 10.0.0.19". 
Unfortunately, I only get "NT_STATUS_PIPE_BROKEN" and no message is sent.

Here is the complete output:
--------

Sending messages to a Windows XP system works fine. The two Windows 
systems can also send messages to each other.
Regarding Bug 7635 ( https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7635 ), 
this problem should have been fixed, but I tried 3.5.11, 3.5.12 and 
3.6.3 without success.
Firewalls between the systems are deactivated. All Windows systems are 
patched.

Best regards,
Yann
