It doesn't do it straight away though....it will chunter along at the
command line debug level until it's read in smb.conf :-).

This was noticed by luke a while back and I believe it has been changed in
the NTDOM branch version of smbclient, perhaps it should be changed in the
main (and even the 1.9.18?) branch too if it isn't too much work. I've just
seen a couple of messages on Samba Bugs complaining about this one...
