Description Max N. Boyarov 2006-02-28 13:05:04 UTC
All error exit with 0 , for sample in smb_download_file, all success states is return 1, but main and readrcfile and clean_exit return 0 as success.

for sample:

$ smbget -N smb://unk/none && echo "downloaded ok." || echo "Fail to download."
Downloaded 0b in 0 seconds
downloaded ok.

The following test cases would certainly clarify the output the Reporter must have got which made him file the bug 
 
=================================================================================

$ ./main.exe false && echo "   success" || echo "   failure"
 false   success             ( when the program returns 0 )

$ ./main.exe true && echo "   success" || echo "   failure"
 true   failure        ( when the program returns 1 )

$ cat main.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int argc , char *argv[])
{
        if (strcmp(argv[1] , "true") == 0 )  {
                printf("\n true");
                return 1;
        }
        else{
                printf("\n false");
                return 0;
        }
}

$ true && echo "   success" || echo "   failure"
   success

$ false && echo "   success" || echo "   failure"
   failure

smbget extis always with 1 on errors and exits with 0 on success. Looks completely fine here with a 4.1 smbget
