Description David Wuertele 2003-11-12 15:03:00 UTC 
smbclient should use the RPC call NetrShareEnum,
not the RAP call (NetShareEnum) to enumerate shares.

until then, shares with names longer than 12 characters will never be enumerated.
Comment 1 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2003-11-13 13:25:25 UTC 
smbclient is not going to use rpc.
This would be the job of 'net rpc ...'
Comment 2 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2003-11-13 14:29:16 UTC 
Andrew wants it.
Comment 3 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2004-03-12 06:54:47 UTC 
marking as enhancement.
Comment 4 David Wuertele 2004-03-12 10:07:24 UTC 
The reason I wanted this for smbclient was so that I could give my own apps the
ability to enumerate shares by linking to smbclient.so.  Is there already an API
I can use to access the 'net rpc ...' functionality that you mention?

no one wants to fix this....
